Technical Responsibilities: • Recognized the problem statement and research gaps in the area of synchronous generator (SG) protection to understand the objective of the assigned project. • Designed a simulation model of the SG network in the real-time digital simulator (RTDS). Also, developed a laboratory prototype for the SG system with the help of a custom-designed generator, DC motor, transformer, loads, CTs, PTs, grid synchronizing equipment, data acquisition kit, and other auxiliary devices with required specification. • Collated and analyzed complex data in MATLAB generated from highly specialized and advanced experiments on simulation and hardware, to develop problem formulation. • Performed a wide and complex variety of assays, tests, and studies on a wide number of patterns obtained from the signal analysis leads to the development of novel algorithms which overcame the shortcomings of the prevailing techniques and met the specifications guided by IEEE Standard PC37.102/D8-2006. • The authenticity of the newly developed algorithm was verified using the designed laboratory prototype of the generator. • After successful testing and validation of the proposed algorithm, the positive outcomes of the analysis are published in peer-reviewed journals and in a referred international conferences with proper acknowledgment. Administrative Responsibilities: • Updates on new tests, methodologies, and reports to the principal investigator relative to feasibility, quality, and benefits of such new developments. • Coordinates purchasing in the project as per IIT Roorkee norms which include specifications writing, submitting purchase indent, floating tenders, invites bidding, technical comparison of bids, and justifications for equipment purchases. • Prepare budget analysis and utilize contingency and consumables budget within the allotted financial year including settlement of the bill. • Deliver a progress seminar that summarizes completed objectives, budget utilization, and proposed tasks for next year with presentation and analytical reports. • Prepare annual progress reports with utilization certificate, claim bill, and consolidated statement of account. • Monitors progress of research project and coordinates progress information between funding agency (CSIR) and IIT Roorkee.

• Study of various techniques of condition monitoring for Power Transformer. • Measuring various monitoring parameters with sensors, designing and training a neural network with real-time data for fault classification and health monitoring of transformer continuously. • Implementation of designed neural network in online conditioning monitoring with online sensors measured value as input. • It was based on the real-time problem of the testing department and O&M department of MSETCL in coordination with R&D and a patent has been filed for this work.
