In our daily lives, security is the primary concern when engaging in any activity. In today's world, the accidental death of a lineman is frequently reported and documented. Looking at the current working style, a safety measure to protect the operator is found to be very necessary in this direction. The electric lineman safety system is intended to control the control panel doors and circuit breaker using a password for safety. Critical electrical accidents involving linemen are on the rise, which may be due to a lack of communication and coordination between maintenance personnel and electric substation personnel. The proposed system provides a solution that ensures the safety of linemen. The lineman is in charge of turning the power to the line on and off. The system is set up so that a password is required to access the control panel and circuit breaker (ON/OFF) doors. the lineman requests and receives a secure password from the control room for the information on that line. This request is registered, and a password is sent to the lineman's mobile phone and the control panel GSM module for further processing. The password is entered using the matrix keypad that is linked to the Arduino Uno microcontroller. The password entered is compared to the password received by the control panel GSM receiver. If the password is entered correctly, the circuit breaker ON/OFF and door OPEN/CLOSE features are enabled, allowing the lineman to perform the repair. If an introducer tries to operate the mechanism three times with the wrong password, it will display a message on the LCD display and send a message to the control room about unauthorised access to the system for safety reasons.
