static charge detector

 Current leakage detector

Introduction:

This is a static charge detector circuit.It detects the leakage of charge from any circuit,mains,within walls,etc.

Now a days wiring in houses are done within the walls and in the condition of charge leakage it becomes impossible to detect where is the fault.In such cases the whole wall has to be broken down for repairing.

This causes loss of time and money.It is a major problem in almost all building and appartment in this modern age.

To provide beautification to houses,flats and shops the interior wiring is done within walls but during the problem in electric faults it also causes heavy loss of money.

 

Circuit:

Components: 1) resistors(100k,100k,220k)

                        2) 3 transistor BC547

                        3) 6v dc supply

Description:

 

 Here 3 BC547 transistor are used.

the emitter of every transistor is connected to the base of other.

at the place of detector you have to use any metal or conductor.Here the 3 transistor are used with 3resistors

220k resistor is used at last transistor to provide perfect voltage drop across the Led to make it work.

other two transistor is used with 100k resistor.

Here the circuit works on the principle of charge gain the charge detected is multiplied by gain to give the result in form of led glow.

the gain is simple 100k*100k*220k

the detector is capable of detecting any static charges.
