        abstract = {Maximum power demand management is an embedded-based project that may be imposed in industries that need to monitor and regulate the amount of active load, both critical and non-critical. In order to exert control over these specific characteristics, industries must employ a proprietary controller. In the event of a load overflow or the need to operate the generator in an entirely automated mode based on the principle of prioritizing important and non-critical loads, this project's goal is to use a single controller to sequentially distribute electricity from several feeds. Industries, schools, and big consumers may all benefit from this project's power management features. The level of authority is inadequate in a lot of nations. This means that businesses, schools, and other major customers can only get a limited amount of power from the electrical board. They will be subject to a fine if their quantity goes over the limit. Distributing the overall dynamic line load across the various stages in accordance with the specified feeder rating is the primary goal of our project. Whenever demand arises, the phase will automatically distribute the load to the other feeders if a certain feeder's value is surpassed. In addition to monitoring and controlling the settings using an embedded system, the system would automatically start a generator when the maximum power is utilized, a condition known as overload.},
