Abstract This paper designs and implements the monitoring and control systems for tap changer of the distribution transformers by using GSM (global system for mobile) network. The proposed method comprises an embedded system which collects and processes the transformer parameters such as temperature, humidity, silicone gel color, Buchholz relay status, the status of input and output phases, the current flow in each phase and power of each phase. If the parameters exceed the permitted level, the system sends all parameters using the GSM modem through GSM network to the control center, and the center receives and processes them by the GSM modem, and then they are displayed on computer. Furthermore, some commands are sent from the center to change the tap changer position, denoting the transformer position and making report on the transformer parameters. Some advantages of this system can be denoted as extending the lifetime of the transformer, consumers, wires and facilities, no need to the operator, simplifying the troubleshooting in distribution network, balancing the loads and providing customers with proper service.
