Expert domestic wiring simulation
The human body is very sensitive to electric currents. Voltage can be thought of as pressure to force current through the human body and a pressure. If the human body is wet or the skin is freshly cut, the majority of the resistance is lacking. Less voltage may be required and/or more current may be...

| Summary: | The human body is very sensitive to electric currents. Voltage can be thought of as pressure to force current through the human body and a pressure. If the human body is wet or the skin is freshly cut, the majority of the resistance is lacking. Less voltage may be required and/or more current may be forced through the human body. The majority of people can feel 0.003 to 0.004 amperes. Expert Domestic Wiring Simulation was designed as a learning purpose especially for electrical student. Curiosity can be harmful and possibly cause the accident during lab classes. This is because they lack of knowledge about how to do domestic wiring. In a domestic installation, mains circuits fall into three basic types: power outlet circuits, lighting circuits, and single-appliance circuits. Power outlet circuits supply power to electrical appliances via plug-and-socket connections. This expert simulation was covered a few familiar domestic wiring connection, such as main switch circuit, lamp circuits and socket connection circuit. This simulation will be design using Visual Basic Language, and designed step by step by using bottom-up Software Development Life Cycle. There are three main advantages of doing this simulation which are safety, saving cost and reduce preparation time. So, as the final result, users may use this simulation as reference before attend the real wiring, and they may try one by one of the connection without risk any life of component. So, many student would do “try and error” such as making harmful wiring connections. So, this simulation was able to represent the real world on how domestic wiring is done based on computer programming simulation and able to utilize the program simulation about the true usage of the wiring system and therefore could save the cost of electrical devices/equipment and also emphasize on safety feature during lab simulation. |
