The Power Supply is a Primary requirement for the project work.

The
required DC power supply for the base unit as well as for the recharging unit is derived from
the mains line. For this purpose center tapped secondary of 12V-012V transformer is used.
From this transformer we getting 5V power supply. In this +5V output is a regulated output
and it is designed using 7805 positive voltage regulator. This output is given to ADC
Humidity sensor is a device consisting of a special plastic material whose electrical
characteristics change according to the amount of humidity in the air. Basically it is a sensor
that senses the amount of water vapor in air. In our project HSM-20G is essential where the
relative humidity can be converted to standard voltage output. This output is given to ADC.
Analog-to-digital converters are among the most widely used devices for data acquisition. We
need an analog-to-digital converter to translate the analog signals to digital numbers so that
microcontroller can read them. A widely used ADC chip is the ADC0804.The heart of our
project is 89C51 microcontroller. Leakage detection is determined with the help of this.

The criteria for choosing an 89C51 microcontroller:


 Meeting the computing needs of the task efficiently and cost effectively
o speed, the amount of ROM and RAM, the number of I/O ports and timers, size,
packaging, power consumption

o easy to upgrade

o cost per unit

 Availability of software development tools

o assemblers, debuggers, C compilers, emulator, simulator, technical support

 Wide availability and reliable sources of the microcontrollers.

In order to display our leakage location generally we preferred this LCD section. Depending
up on the resolution and contrast features.
