Electronic Fuse Circuit for 230V AC
Electronic Fuse Circuit for 230V AC
This is a design for an electronic fuse that use for 230V AC. This circuit can adjust with an adjustable trip current. This circuit was controlled by variable resistor and regulator IC LM7906 series. This circuit connects directly to 220-230V AC which can be lethal. This design is complete design circuit. The figure of circuit is shown in this below.
The principle of operation this circuit is begin when the current through the load exceeds a level determined by the position of the wiper on the 1k wire-wound pot, this circuit cuts off the load immediately. If S1 is open, the range is approximately 300-650 mA, and 0.8-2A when it is closed.
The key variable in the operation of the fuse is the voltage drop across the power resistor(s) which are connected in series with the load. This voltage drop is directly proportional to the current the load draws. When this current is low, the voltage across the resistors is also small and cannot trigger T1. At the same time the gate of T2 is fed from a little power supply built around a negative voltage regulator. T2 is conducting and the load is on.
