RESIDENTIAL HOUSE WIRING USING SWITCHES,
Date: FUSE, INDICATOR LAMP AND ENERGY METER

AIM:-
To make a simple residential house wiring using switches, fuse, indicator lamp, filament

lamps and energy meter.

APPARATUS REQUIRED:-
S.No Name of the Components Range Quantity
1 Wiring Board - 1
2 Switches 5A 2
3 Fuse 5A 1
4 Lamp 230V/60 W 1
5 Indicator lamp 0W 1
6 Energy meter 230V/16A 1
7 3 pin socket 5A 1
6 Connecting wires - As required

PRECAUTIONS:
1. Tools should be used carefully.
2. Fitting should be tightly fitted.
3. Connection should be tight.
4. Wire should be on the conduit, power gripped properly.
THEORY:-
TYPES OF HOUSE WIRING:
1. CLEAT WIRING: -
This is of wiring suitable only for temporary wiring purpose. In lamp or wet location
the wire used should be moisture proof and a weather proof.
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

2. P.V.C CONDUIT WIRING:-


This uses a conduit pipe for the mechanical protection of wire. In this system of wiring,
wires are carried through P.V.C conduit pipe for giving converging to pipes conduit pipe has
certain advantage like it is moisture proof and durable.
3. P.V.C CASTING WIRING: -
This type of wiring is mostly used for fixing cables on a wooden structure called batten
by means of metal. It is the surface wiring system whenever wires are broken for connecting
to switch on the right point junction box made up of either part plastic or metal C.I must be
used and provided same means of earthing.
A switch is used to make or break the electric circuit. It must make the contact finely.
Under some abnormal conditions it must retain its rigidity and keep its alignment between
switch contacts. Different types of switches are as follows.
1. Surface or Tumbler switch
a. Single way switch
b. Two way switch
2. Flush Switch
3. Pull or Ceiling switches
4. Rotary snap switches
5. Push button switch
6. Iron- Clad watertight switches
The fuse arrangement is made to break the circuit in the fault or overloaded conditions.
The energy meter is measuring the units (KWhr) consumed by the various loads. Conductors,
switches and other accessories should be of proper capable of carrying the maximum current
which will flow through them. The following table shows the rating for different accessories.
Conductors should be of copper or aluminum. In power circuit, wiring should be designed for
the load which it is supposed to carry. Power sub circuits should be kept separate from lighting
and fan sub – circuits. Wiring should be done on the distribution system with main and branch
distribution boards at convenient centers. Wiring should neat, with good appearance.
• Wires should pass through a pipe or box, and should not twist or cross
• The conductor is carried in a rigid steel conduit conforming to standards or in a
porcelain tube.
LAYOUT DIAGRAM:

PROCEDURE:-
1. Mark the lamp and switch positions.
2. Give the connections as per the circuit diagram.
3. Switch on the supply.
4. Check the lamps are glowing or not when the corresponding switches are kept in the
ON position.
5. Check whether the energy meter responding to the load.
VIVA QUESTIONS:
1. What is the purpose of neutral in the circuit?

2. What kind of supply is given to the circuit?

3. What is the purpose of fuse in a circuit?

4. What is DPSTS?

5. What is frequency?

6. What is AC supply?
