In StockAn AC Current Detector is a device or circuit that senses the flow of alternating current (AC) through a wire or appliance. It typically uses components like a current transformer (CT) or hall effect sensor to detect AC current and activate an indicator such as an LED or buzzer.
Description
An AC current detector is designed to detect the presence or flow of AC current in a conductor without making direct electrical contact. It is widely used in electrical safety, troubleshooting, automation systems, and energy monitoring.
There are several methods to detect AC current, including:
- Current Transformer (CT)
- Hall Effect Sensor
- Shunt Resistor + Rectifier
- Inductive Pickup Coil
These detectors can be used for:
- Turning on an alert when current flows
- Detecting power usage in appliances
- Triggering relays for protection or automation
Applications of AC Current Detector:
1.AC Line Status Monitoring
1.Detects whether current is flowing in a power line.
2.Appliance Monitoring
1.Detects if a machine is ON or OFF based on current.
3.Overcurrent Protection
1.Triggers protection circuits when current exceeds a limit.
4.Home Automation
1.Smart switch activates based on appliance usage.
5.Industrial Equipment
1.Monitors operation of motors and heavy machinery.
6.Power Saving Systems
1.Turns off unused devices automatically if no current is detected.

A Visitor Counter automatically counts the number of people entering or leaving a room using an IR sensor. The count is displayed on a 16×2 LCD, and a buzzer can alert when a specific limit is reached. This project is widely used in shops, libraries, offices, and events to monitor occupancy. It demonstrates sensor interfacing, counting logic, and real-time display using Arduino.

- A rain alert system with an LCD display and buzzer, controlled by an 8051 microcontroller, is designed to detect rainfall and provide real-time notifications. The system uses a rain sensor to detect moisture or rainfall, and the microcontroller processes the sensor data. When rain is detected, the 8051 triggers a buzzer to alert the user audibly and displays the rain status on an LCD screen.
