The present invention relates to a relay demonstration board, characterized by a microcontroller, numbers of relays are connected to the microcontroller by a plurality of switches, wherein the first relay is connected to a light bulb for controlling the lighting of the bulb and the second and third relay are connected to a DC motor for controlling the rotational direction of the motor. Accordingly, these objectives may be achieved by following the teachings of the present invention. This invention relates to a relay demonstration board for teaching and learning purpose. An electrical relay is an electromagnetic switch operated by a relatively small electric current that can control a much bigger current and thus enable both circuits to be electrically isolated from each other. Relays have been used in wide variety of applications such as home appliances, digital computers and automation system due to its simplicity, long life and high reliability. The project present invention relates to a relay demonstration board. It is developed to allow students to understand the function of relay and how to connect relay in circuit. The major components include three relays, one light bulb and one direct current (DC) motor. The relays are used for control purpose while the light bulb and DC motor are used as the output. Furthermore, the light can be connected in alternating current (AC) or DC circuit to show students how to connect AC circuit and DC circuit. Besides, this tool are invention can be connected to an external microcontroller such as an Arduino board to provide input and or signal to the circuit.
