The LED AC mains voltage level indicator is a circuit that can be used for displaying and monitoring the instantaneous voltage level of any 220 V or 120 V mains home AC input, through a correspondingly rising and falling LED bar graph. A simple construction and accurate result are the main features of this tiny […]

Mains 220 V AC Line Filter Circuit for Transient Suppression
The 220 V mains AC line filter circuit described here has two functions: it prevents high-frequency waves from being sent back into the power network and it protects connected equipment from power line disturbances and surges. This circuit employs a number of components, such as capacitors, resistors, inductors, and a varistor, which are deliberately positioned […]
Convert any Existing AC Lamp into Timer Controlled Lamp
The proposed push button timer circuit module can be directly integrated with any existing switch contacts of a lamp and enable the lamp to be converted into a timer controlled lamp. A common problem arises whenever one wants to replace a mains AC lamp controlled by a switch with a timer or a time switch. […]
Mains AC Current Detector Switch Circuit
The circuit I have I have explained in this article allows one to detect the current consumed by a device and to power one or more other devices accordingly. Indeed, the solution of a switchboard is not always applicable because it is often not very practical. Furthermore, some devices such as computers only start when […]
AC Phase, Neutral, Earth Fault Indicator Circuit
The circuit explained here will provide LED indications and show if there’s a possible fault in the wiring of your home AC Phase, Neutral, and Earth connections. The idea was requested by Mr. SS kopparthy. Technical Specifications sir, very good morning. I thank you for your help. I further wanted you to consider a circuit […]
