MUMBAI, India, July 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521059468 A) filed by L. D. College Of Engineering; Aryan Raiyani; Vardhaman Solanki; Niket Vaishnav; Jaimie Shah; Parth Parmar; Jay Chhatrotiya; Dr. K. A. Bhatt; and Prof. Fedrik Macwan, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, on June 20, for 'iot-based streetlight switchgear health monitoring for enhanced public safety.'

Inventor(s) include Aryan Raiyani; Vardhaman Solanki; Niket Vaishnav; Jaimie Shah; Parth Parmar; Jay Chhatrotiya; Dr. K. A. Bhatt; and Prof. Fedrik Macwan.

The application for the patent was published on July 11, under issue no. 28/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a system for monitoring the health of earthing switchgear installed in street lights. The present invention includes advanced technology, such as ESP32, current sensors, voltage sensors, relay modules, and server integration to detect malfunction of the switch gears in real time. The current sensors measure the currents flowing through the phase and the neutral of each pole for detection of the healthiness of the switchgear. The op-amp and optocoupler detect the healthiness of earthing continuity while the current and voltage sensors help in the remote measurement of grounding resistance. ESP32 acquires and transmits the data wirelessly to the Javascript (WebSocket) server and Google apps script. The server analyses the data and generates alert notifications on the dashboard. The present invention aims to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness of monitoring the healthiness of switch gears, ensuring public safety."
