    • 3.3    CIRCUIT BREAKER
          This is defined as electro-mechanical device design to make and break the electric circuit under normal and abnormal conductor such as those of short circuit, the circuit being broken automatically. The majority of circuit breaker is either oil or air blast types.
          Regulation 433-2 require the characteristic of the device (fuse or circuit breaker) protecting the circuit to be coordinated with the conductor forming the circuit such that.
      (i)    Its normal current (fuse rating) or current setting for circuit breaker (IN) is not less than this design current which is the minimum or normal circuit current (IB).
      (ii)    The current which operate the fuse or circuit breaker, causing it to disconnect the circuit (RZ). does next exceed 1.45times the lowest of any current carrying capacities (IZ) for the circuit conductor, using formula: IB<IN<IZ and IZ<1.45IZ.
      (iii)    It is not greater than the current-carrying (IZ)of the circuit conductor.


      3.4     RESET TIMER
           A relay designed to operate after a calculated time delay is called a “timer relay” or timer. If the timer delay is fixed regardless of the input of the relay (in excess of pick-up value) the relay is termed “definite timer”. The amount of time delay may less for greater input to the relay, such relay are called “inverse” very inverse or “extremely inverse” depending on the extent which relay is reduced for an increase in the input to the relay.
          A relay designed to have no intentional time is said to be instantaneous.

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACT    The main aim of any electric power supply in the world is to provide uninterrupted power supply at all times to all its consumers. Although in developing countries, the electric power generated to meet the demands of the growing consumers of electricity is insufficient hence instability and outage.    Power instability or outage in general does not promote development in the public and private sector. The inventors do not feel secure to come into a country with constant or freq ... Continue reading---

      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER ONE1.1    INTRODUCTION     Power instability in developing countries creates a need for automation of electrical power generation or alternative sources of power to back-up the utility supply. This automation is requiring as the rate of power outages become predominantly high. Research in the field of electrical electronics engineering has led to the tremendous discovers and inventions especially in the area of automation and power control. These invention have been useful in solvi ... Continue reading---

         

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]The circuit diagram of the flip flop and switching transistor stage of the related art.Another related art was the development of a single phase automatic change-over switch. This also related to the present invention i.e. it switches electrical power supply from public supply to generator in the event of a power outage or insufficient voltage but it is apply to single phase system while the present invention is apply to three (3) phase system, moreover, the system uses an electronic control cir ...
