Project - Analysis of a practical automotive wiring circuit

1.BATTERY

GENERATOR

STARTER

BREAKER

REGULATOR

DISTRIBUTOR

2 . The purpose of battery is to provide power at all times and also for different purposes. And also to store power generated from generator

The purpose of a regulator to keep the right amount of electrical power flowing consistently to certain parts of the vehicles if it is broken the components in the system may work only eratically or not at all.

The purpose of a starter is to crank up the engine to initiate the engine operation under its own power.

3. the fuse taken must be of 15A

4. The required power is 500W x 3hrs (assuming it has to work for 3 hrs)=1500W

and the voltage assumed to be of 12v

1500/12=125Ah

so a 150Ah battery will be enough

5. the parking lamp, sealed beam and horn are connected in parallel so as if one fails to work the other will work and also it will be capable of utilising the whole power.

6. the ignition circuit is connected in series with each other the ignition switch and ignition coil. because if the switch is on then only the coil should get the power

the fuel circuit is also connected in series as it sends electrical pulse to indicate the level of fuel
