Abstract: Electrocution causes serious effect on human and animals and leads to dead some times. The Electrocution is one in all the main faced problems in forest areas and a few agricultural fields. Especially Forest guards were getting affected because of Electrocution in rainy seasons and through invisible condition. Forest guards get electrocuted in Forest due to electrical power lines and some of them lose their life by touching the electrical lines directly or when there is a leakage in supply lines. To find the electrocution condition, a device has been developed and is detailed in this article. This proposed device will detect the electrical power lines and give the alert signal to the user. The prototype model working has been verified at different work fields where the power lines present.
