Automatic Bathroom Lamp

This document describes an automatic bathroom lamp circuit that uses a light-dependent resistor, reed switch, LM358 IC, and 12V relay to automatically turn the bathroom light on when the door is opened and off when closed. During the day, the light-dependent resistor prevents the light from turning on even if the door is opened to avoid unnecessary power usage. The circuit aims to automatically control the bathroom light in a power-efficient manner without needing to manually turn it on or off.

OBJECTIVE: We turn On the lights in our washroom when we enter it and turn
them off when we leave. We sometimes forget to turn Off the lights after leaving the
washroom. This may lead to power wastage and also the lifetime of the lights may
decrease. To avoid these problems, we are going to make a circuit which automatically
turns On the lights when a person enters the washroom and it automatically turns it Off
when he leaves it.

By automating this, there are many advantages like, the person need not care to turn On
the light always when he is using the washroom. The circuit which we are doing does it
automatically for that person. Also, the person need not turn it off after using the
washroom. There is no fear that he forgets to turn it Off. The circuit is also designed to
consume lesser power so that the circuit can be used in any household or public
washrooms without worrying about the power bills

Technical Details. This simple circuit can be used as an automatic bathroom


lamp controller. It disables the bathroom lamp at daytime and enables it at night. The
circuit is built around a light-dependant resistor (LDR), reed switch, LM358 IC, a 12V 1-
change over (C/O) relay The working of the circuit is based on the opening/closing of
the bathroom door. When the bathroom door is closed, magnet comes near the reed
switch and shorts its terminals. Then bulb will be not glowing. When bathroom door is
opened, magnet moves away from the reed switch and opens its terminals relay
energizes and lamp glows. When bathroom door is opened, lamp remains on. After
entering the bathroom do not close the door completely. If the bathroom door is
completely closed, lamp is switched off. During daytime, lamp operation is not
necessary due to the presence of sunlight so LDR is used. Fit LDR near the bathroom
window where it can receive sunlight (reflected sunlight is enough). At daytime if you
open the bathroom door, resistance of LDR reduces Relay does not energies and lamp
remains off. At night, if you open the bathroom door, resistance of LDR is high, the
lm358 IC gives high signal. Relay energizes and lamp is switched on.

Advantages
Motion sensor light switches are becoming more popular in homes, and for good reason.
Not only are they simple and inexpensive to install, but they can also save money, help
conserve natural resources, and provide added safety and security in your home. Here
are some good reasons why you might want to consider adding one or more motion
sensitive light switches to your home.
