Abstract
The Internet of Things (IOT) fills the gap between the real world and cyber world. This technology
enables the world to achieve connectivity between objects by combining physical and digital world; through various
objects such as; actuators, processors, sensors which communicate over the internet. It is one of the flourishing
technologies in the world. A Distribution Static compensator (DSTATCOM) which is installed in a remote village of
Warangal district is interfaced with IOT. In this paper we combine IOT with a DSTATCOM, to keep a check on the
power factor and other transmission line parameters remotely. IOT technology is used to monitor the health
conditions of the DSTATCOM, with the swift and apt notification feature using Gmail.
