Automatic Transfer Switch connection:

This diagram shows how to make an automatic transfer switch connection. In this circuit diagram, we simply use a single-phase energy meter, 2 magnetic contactors, an 8-pin relay, DP MCB (Double Pole Miniature Circuit Breaker ), and a power generator. This diagram is very simple and very easy to connect it. If you want to more clear details connection about this diagram please check our youtube video below the post.

Components used to make the 2 switch controlled a light:

Magnetic Contactor:

A magnetic contactor is an electromagnetic switching device. It is generally used for controlling three-phase motors. The operation of a magnetic contactor is similar to that of a relay, but a relay is used for low-power or low-voltage connections, and a magnetic contactor is used for high-power or high-voltage connections. As soon as the supply is applied to the magnetic contactor coil, its normally open contacts are closed and normally closed contacts are opened and the associated devices are also operated. This is how a magnetic contactor works.

8-Pin Relay:

The most popular relay for automation work is the 8 Pin Relay. 8 pin relay has DC or AC coil as the main part. which is connected to two pins. There are two common parts. Underneath a Common part are an NO and an NC part. NO part is normally open with the common part and the NC part is normally closed. The timer base used for automation is the same as the 8-relay base. That is, switching can be done using the timer base. This is basically how a relay switch works.

DP MCB:

DP MCB In Two Pole MCB, switching & protection is affected in phases and the neutral. A Double Pole or DP Switch is a Switch that Controls two Circuits at the same time. In terms of Residential Switching, this Normally means it Switches the live and Neutral at the same time. In Layperson Terms, Double Pole switches or DP Switches are Exclusively Designed to Control two Different Electrical Circuits at the same time, which allows the Appliances to Isolate in a safe and reliable manner. Fan or light Combinations and Medical Equipment are some of the many applications for DP Electrical Switches.

Single Phase Energy Meter:

A Single-Phase Energy Meter is a sort of Watt-Hour meter. It consists of two Electromagnets. Single-Phase Energy Meter is also Popularly known as a watt-hour meter. One Magnet is called the shunt magnet Ml which is Mounted with a Pressure coil. The Pressure coil is a long coil Made of fine Copper wire which is connected across the Supply line. Single-phase energy meters are suitable for measuring single-phase AC current frequencies of 50/60 Hz, which are used for fixed indoor installations.

Power Generator:

An electric generator is a type of electrical device that converts mechanical energy or power into electrical energy or power. However, dynamo generally refers to generators only. The first generator built was called dynamo. This electrical device makes this conversion using the principle of kinetic electromagnetic energy generation. According to Farad’s principle of electromagnetic induction, a dynamic electromagnetic induction is induced in a conductor when it passes through a magnetic flux.
