invention uses a combination of resistances and capacitance to limit the level of AC leakage current present in the metal body of electric appliances. The output of current limiting circuit is then fed to a Bridge rectifier which converts AC into DC. Then DC output of Bridge rectifier is used to drive the audio-visual alarm circuit‚ connected in parallel. Audio alarm circuit uses a buzzer while visual alarm circuit uses a light emitting diode (LED) connected in series with current limiting resistance

topology was first introduced by Gyugyi in 1976 [2]. It is mainly used for AC-AC conversion. Other name for MC is PWM cycloconverter. It provides the all-silicon solution for AC-AC conversion by removing the DC link‚ which issued in conventional rectifier-inverter based system. Other advantages of MC are good input power quality‚ potentiality of increasing power density‚ reducing size and cost‚ bidirectional energy flow. The single phase matrix converter (SMPS) was first identified by zuckerberger

Wind Energy System based on Buck-boost Controller Abstract – In this edge most of the countries are facing energy related problem therefore researchers are now try to find such a system which should not create any environment issues. In nature there is various non-conventional resources use for the generation of electricity such as water‚ sunlight‚ geothermal energy. But there is disadvantage of solar energy is that we can’t generate power using solar energy in rainy season and in night time

ABSTRACT Capacitance measurement is of immense importance in the field of electronics. An instrument that measures capacitance to accuracy better than 0.5% has been improvised and rendered auto-ranging by means of an 89c51 circuit. The principle is that of a “direct” or fundamental principle of the time constant of the component. For e.g.‚ the time taken to charge a capacitor to 50% of the applied voltage is given by 0.5 V = V (1- exp (-t/τ) ) The value of t is determined as 0.69314718τ. Knowing

(kay rap)DEFINITION OF TERMS AC (alternating current) - In electricity‚ alternating current (AC) occurs when charge carriers in a conductor or semiconductor periodically reverse their direction of movement. Household utility current in most countries is AC with a frequency of 60 hertz (60 complete cycles per second)‚ although in some countries it is 50 Hz. The radio-frequency (RF) current in antennas and transmission lines is another example of AC. The usual waveform of an AC power circuit is a sine
