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 […]
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 […]
Remote Control using Mains Power Line Communication
The proposed circuit will allow you to remotely control a mains AC operated appliance across rooms of your home through mains power line communication or PLC concept. In PLC technology, an electronic circuit which works as a transmitter is plugged-in to the mains wiring (220 V or 120 V) injects a modulating high frequency data […]
Password Controlled AC Mains ON/OFF Switch
In this post I will show how to construct a password based mains ON/OFF switch circuit, which can turn ON and OFF the AC mains supply, only when correct password is entered. This prevents the danger of electrocution of the technician who might be currently working with the high voltage lines and equipment. Password Protection […]
200, 600 LED String Circuit on Mains 220V
In this post I have explained the construction of a 200 to 600 LED circuit project, using series parallel LEDs for creating an alphabetical display sign board. The idea was requested by Mr. Mubarak Idris. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I need a blinking LED light that show”WELCOME TO” blink and then “COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING” base […]
