How does a Two Way Switch Work - Wiring Connection and Demonstration One of the simple yet interesting connection diagrams that young engineers learn in their lab is the staircase lighting setup. Perhaps most of us might have already used it without paying much attention to how it works. Staircase lighting at home or at any other place, for that matter, is normally done with something called a two-way switch. … |

AC Light Dimmer using Arduino and TRIAC In our household, most of the appliances are powered from the AC supply such as Lights, TVs, and Fans, etc. We can turn ON/OFF them digitally if needed, using Arduino and Relays by building a Home automation setup. But what if we need to control the power of those devices for example to dim the AC Lamp or to Control the speed of the Fan. In that case, we have to use phase… |

Arduino Light Sensor Circuit using LDR We all want our home appliances to be controlled automatically based on some conditions and that's called Home automation. Today we are going to control the light based of darkness outside, the light turns ON automatically when it is dark outside and turns off when it gets bright. For this, we need a light sensor to detect the light condition and some circuitry to control… |

Wireless Switch Circuit using LDR and CD4017 Have you ever feel a shock by touching the switch? It does not generally happen but sometimes physical contact with switches may be dangerous. But what if the switch gets wireless and you don’t have to press any button at all for switching on or off your home appliances. So today we are building a Simple Wireless Switch Circuit in which there is no need of physical contact… |

IR Remote Controlled TRIAC Dimmer Circuit In this project, we are going to make a TRIAC dimmer circuit for AC Appliances. Here we are not going to use a microcontroller. We have used basic components to complete this task. In this project, we will use Triac to control the brightness of the AC bulb with a IR TV Remote. You can also control Fan speed with your TV remote using this Triac Dimmer circuit. … |

RF Controlled Home Appliances Home Automation has always been a hot buzzing topic to learn or to work on. It is really cool to control AC appliances wirelessly. There are lots of ways to do this and imagination is the limit. In this project we will learn the most simple and easy way to build a Wireless Home Automation Project in which we can toggle AC loads by using 433 MHz RF transmitter and receiver… |

Automatic Staircase Lights using PIR Sensor and Relay This automatic staircase light circuit switch on the staircase lights automatically when someone enters on the stairs and gets off after some time. There are two important components in this circuit, first is PIR Sensor (Passive Infrared Sensor) and second is Relay.
