Generator Feedback Sensing Module

Will give a HIGH LOGIC signal whenever the Generator is on and vice versa.

Approach #1

Created a feedback module ourselves which gave +7Volts output upon 220volt / 50Hz input.

Problem

Due to poor isolation, there was too much noise at output, thus generating false outputs

 

Approach #2

We a Nokia 5Volt adapter J

Benefit

Good isolation and negligible noise content
