    • 1.2. OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
      The major objectives of this project is to design and construct an automatic change-over switch with Gen set switching facility capable of transferring control from MAINS to Gen set.
      It is also aimed at equipping the graduating student with Hands – on experiences which is invaluable in their professional practice. It is aimed at grounding the graduate of EEE in electronic system designs involving power control and automation using random/Hard wired logic. Another objective of this project is to acquaint the graduating students on the ethics of Engineering, technical and scientific writing which is a nucleus of engineering professional practice.
      1.3.  SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT
      This project work signifies a lot in Electrical power control and automation. It means a lot in EEE. This project is a design that has to be developed and funded for commercial purposes regarding its usefulness. This project eliminates the stress, time delay and other drawbacks in manually operated types. The project can be modified to display the phase in use at a particular time using a single seven segment Display and its appropriate circuitry. It also exposes the students to digital system designs involving Encoders & Decoders.
      1.4.  SCOPE OF THE STUDY
      This project work focuses on the design and construction of automatic change-over switch with Gen set switching facility. It covers the following; Encoders and Decoders, Relays/Contactors, 3 – phase regulated DC power supply unit, passive and active components, Generator switching mechanism and it x-rays the mode of calculation of the basic circuit parameter used in the design.
       1.5.  PROJECT REPORT ORGANIZATION
      This project report is presented in six chapters to appropriately illustrate the steps involved in its implementation.
      Chapter One introduces the project overview, objectives and its significance. Chapter Two is basically the literature review and some theories relevant to the design. Chapter Three x–rays the methodology and analysis while Chapter Four covers the system design and description. Chapter Five elaborates on the implementation, testing and result. Finally, Chapter Six is about the summary of the entire theories and recommendation.

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]This project work deals on the design and construction of an automatic power changeover that will change/transfer control from MAINS to Gen set and can switch ON/OFF the Gen automatically. The system integrates phase selector in MAINS and changeover to Gen. It is designed in several blocks all combined to from one functional unit. A +5v regulated DC power supply unit forms the first block whose output is fed to priority encoder and decoder block. The output of the BCD – Decimal decoder is ... Continue reading---
