Timer Switch for street Light:

This diagram shows how to make Timer Switch for Street Light. Auto Timer Switch for Street Light. How to set Street Light Timer. In this circuit, we use a TP MCB ( Tripple Pole Miniature Circuit Breaker ), an SP MCB ( Single Pole Miniature Circuit Breaker ), a timer, a changeover switch, and a magnetic contactor. This circuit is very simple and is very easy to make. If you want to know more about this circuit please stay with our website and check our youtube video below the post.

Components used to make the street light timer:

01. TP MCB

Fig 2: TP MCB

Three wires can be controlled by a triple pole MCB. Triple pole MCB circuit breakers are generally used in three-phase lines. A triple-pole MCB circuit breaker has three wires at its input and three wires at its output. But one can use this circuit breaker in a single-phase line. TP MCB widely used in industries. The reason is that it has three poles. And this TP circuit breaker is used to provide three-phase and three-phase connections. A neutral is not normally used in three-phase lines. But a 4-pole MCB circuit breaker is used if needed.

02. SP MCB

Fig 3: SP MCB

MCB SP means single pole it protects only one phase switching. MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker) Curswitch is the most basic general-purpose switch that you use to control a light or another device from one location. These Switches Have Two Brass-Colored Screw Terminals Connected to the hot Power Source Wires. (MCB) For any Distribution Board, the Protection System Must be Used in The Incomer. Phase and Neutral Single Phase Supply to break. 120-volt circuits, 15-20 amp single pole breaker is typically used.

03. Changeover Switch

Fig 4: Changeover Switch

Selector Switches Can be Rotated left, Right, or in The Center in Order to Open or Close The Electrical Contacts. The Function of a Selector Switch is To Control Devices as well as Switch Between a Minimum of Two or More Circuits. The perfect Use For a Selector Switch is When Used for Controlling an Output of a Device. Selector Switches Come as a Complete Unit Often listed as a Terminal Block Meaning the Selector Switch is a Complete Block Which Makes it Simple And easy to Install.

04. Timer

Fig 5: Timer

Timer is a specialized type of clock used for measuring specific time intervals.An electromechanical cam timer uses a small synchronous AC motor turning a cam against a comb of switch contacts. This type of timer often has a friction clutch between the gear train and the cam, the cam can be turned to reset the time.A simple example of the first type is an hourglass. Working method timers have two main groups: hardware and software timers.Most timers give an indication that the time interval that had been set has expired.

05. Street Light

Fig 6: Street Light

CFLs work in a completely different way from ordinary lamps, they work by using a different process called fluorescence rather than generating light from heat. A typical light bulb wastes 90% of energy and converts only 10% of energy into light, this is where CFL has the biggest advantage. CFL- Curved or conical glass tube filled with argon and a small amount of mercury vapor. The inner wall of the glass is coated with fluorescent material. CFL- It is manufactured using the principle of creating fluorescent light. CFL- Originally white in color but now the construction and use of CFLs producing colored light has become popular.

06. Contactor

Fig 7: Contactor

A magnetic contactor is an electrical device used for load control, automation, and protection. It is much like a magnetic reel. However, relays are generally used for low power and voltage, on the other hand, when we think of high power, these heavy-duty contractors only come to mind. It basically works by switching the load on and off. It has 3 terminals whose inputs are denoted as L1, L2, L3, and outputs as T1, T2, and T3. The circuit of the load is made in automation mode or protection using auxiliary contacts. It has two types of terminals. 1) Normally Open (NO). 2) Normally Closed (NC).
