Automatic Phase Selector

This document describes an automatic phase selector circuit that uses a comparator and relays to switch a load between different power phases based on the voltage level. The circuit compares the voltage from the current phase to a reference voltage, and if it drops below a threshold, the comparator output changes state, activating a transistor that energizes a relay and switches the load to the next phase. The design aims to provide an automatic phase switching mechanism for critical loads to ensure uninterrupted power.

INTRODUCTION
This consist two parts
Automatic phase changer & analog voltmeter
Consists of relay & comparator
Changing the ref: voltage we can control the min:
voltage at the output
BLOCK DIAGRAM
COMPARATOR
COMPARATOR
Compare voltage applied & ref: voltage
Both the magnitudes are same, output is zero.
Sat: voltage is 80% of supply voltage
More +ve at non-inverting terminal output is at +ve
saturation
More +ve at inverting terminal output is at -ve
saturation
RELAY SWITCHING CIRCUIT
IC can’t supply large output current.
So transistor is required
555 timer unusual, coz can be used up to 200mA.
PNP Transistor is used.
Rb is used to limit the current flowing to the base of
the transistor and prevent it being damaged.
A safe rule is to make the base current Ib about five
times larger than the value which should just saturate
the transistor.
RELAY SWITCHING CIRCUIT
 The transistor's maximum collector current Ic(max)
must be greater than the load current Ic.
 load current Ic = supply voltage Vs
 load resistance RL

WORKING

 Supply at R phase is down by tfr: X1 to deliver 12V


Rectified by D1
C1 is the filter.
The voltage at the inverting pin2of the operational
amplifier is taken to the voltage driver circuit of the
resistor R1and preset resistor VR1.

Ref: voltage at pin 3 is fixed ,is 5.1V.


WORKING
voltage at the pin2 of the IC1 remains high ,i.e., more
than reference voltage5.1V,and it’s out put pin 6 also
remains high.
T1 not conducting & relay not energising.
de-energized phase ‘R’ supplies power to the load L1
via normally closed (N/c) contact of the relay RL1.
If supply is below 200V, output goes low, so T1 is
conducting & relay is energizing.
WORKING
load L1 is disconnected from phase ’R’ and connected
to phase ’Y ’through relay RL2.
 Similarly, the auto phase-change of the remaining two
phases, via, phase ‘Y’
and phase ‘B,’ can be explained. Switch S1 is mains
power ‘on’/ ’off’ switch.
TRUTH TABLE
ADVANTAGES
Simply & easily fabricated.
Circuit holds only commonly known IC’s and
components that are readily available.
Greater raliability and less maintanance required.
Used for critical loads like medical & computer
installations.
CONCLUSION
Still automatically flip to the ON phase, if the current
phase is turned OFF.
We worked on the circuit first theoretically & studied
various aspects of the circuit.
We collected the components and it do on the
breadboard.
We found the result.
By working it we successfully verified & we are fully
satisfied.
