But the idea is that I should open up every thing including the main POWER SUPPLY for the safety of the circuit which will result in power lose for my sensor.
The prototype is an aquarium light system and my part is to open the main power supply circuit when the prototype falls in water.
Here are some of the questions regarding this idea:
1) 1) If I use one coil relay with regular spring, it will do the job and will open up the power supply. However, can the user reset this relay by simply unplugging and plugging the wire into the outlet in the wall?
If the answer is yes then I need to solve this problem because I want the user to power up the aquarium light system through pushbuttons
Remote Controlled Circuit Breaker and Moisture detector
Hello All,
I am doing a project and I am responsible about safety for aquarium light system, I am supposed to have a moisture detector ( Could not find online) that detects if the prototype falls in the water of the aquarium. If it did, the sensor then sends a signals to open up the MAIN power supply which will result in shutting down the whole system including the moisture detector (since I am getting my power from the MAIN power supply) so I guess I will need my own power supply probably. For the circuit breakers, I have a “Latch Relay” dual coil switch (DSP1-L2-DC5V)that has a magnet where it will save the last state it had before tripping so the user can not reset the system by just plugging and unplugging the wire in the outlet. I will also have two mechanical push buttons, one normally open and one normally closed to be able to reset the system manually. I also need Remote Control Circuit Breaker (RCCB), I have searched for RCCB for over a week now and could not find one that has current rating between 60 mA to 250 mA. They all operate with current ratings from 5A to 100A which is away from ideal for my project.
Please, I need help in finding:
1) Moisture Detector
2) Remote Control Circuit Breaker: Current Rating between 60mA and 250 mA
Thank you

2) 2) Is it better if I get my voltage from the main power supply or should I use my independent battery?
Thank you for following up with me,
Thank you for your posts,
Here is what I understand about your circuits:
They will both have the same outcomes eventually as the one carbonzit posted will only self energize when the NO pushbutton is pressed and resets when NC pushbotton is pressed or GRI NC sensor relay is open due to the presence of water, that is exactly what Ron's circuit is doing which is power up the light system in the normal conditions and shut down when there is water or reset.
So, in this specific case of mine, will there be any differences at all between the normal relay and the latching one?
