Hey guys,
just wondering if there are any electronics people among us here?
I have a mate who wants to set up two LED's to indicate the status of his cct breaker. Green for when the breaker hasn't tripped and all is ok, and red for when the cct breaker trips. This is for spotlights/other electrical accessories. Current loading ~ 10amps.
I've lost my simulation software and tbh I've forgotten most of the stuff I've learnt at TTSI.
Could someone please confirm if the following basic cct would work in this way ok?
I know it's a simple thing to do, but I don't want to get it wrong on him. Just seeking clarification, or perhaps a better idea etc
Also, the red LED is dependant on the low impedance of the bulb filament. Could someone suggest of something for use on something like a stereo deck etc?
LOL, try not to laugh at my crooked components too much, it's hard with a mouse! (lol @ the bulb )
Btw I dunno the symbol for cct breaker just used a fuse, but same deal for this purpose.
Thanks!
