1.3 Objectives of Project
The several objectives of this project that need to be accomplished in developing renewable energy automatic switching. These projects intend to achieve the following
objectives: i.
To design and develop switch two power supply from TNB or renewable energy
ii. To use and optimize renewable energy as secondary power sources
iii. To simulate and design system energy sources circuit using OrCAD
1.4 Scopes of Project
The way to achieve the several objectives, this project needs to be implementing as below:
i. To design and build automatic switch 240VAC50Hz between two sources
ii. The controller use by PIC16F877A microcontroller in this project
iii. Automatic switch operates through Light Dependent Resistor LDR
iv. OrCAD simulation to design circuit for inverter, converter and battery
v. Limiting energy sources for a vital load such as lighting
1.5 Project Outline
The project outline has been constructed into six chapters. The Chapter One explained about the introduction of this project. This chapter consists of the problem
statement, objectives, scopes and also the project outline. Next, the Chapter Two covered the literature review based on the previous research that conducted towards the
development of this project. Based on research and study, the implementation of the microcontroller was introduced and explained about the solar energy system consist of
converter and inverter.
In addition, Chapter Three explained the methodology about this project in developing the automatic switches consist of software, hardware and simulation
implementation. The literature review of this project focuses on solar power energy. This chapter describes the entire project designed involved which in hardware, software and
simulation development. The Chapter Four will discuss the overall result in this project. The analysis and
discussion of the result will be based on the testing and troubleshooting explained on the Chapter Five. Finally, the last chapter which of Chapter Six, concludes based on summary
of this project and the recommendation of this project.
