    This document describes an automatic street light control system that uses a light dependent resistor (LDR) sensor to switch lights on and off based on sunlight levels. The LDR sensor detects light levels like the human eye and uses a transistor switch to automatically turn lights on when sunlight levels drop and turn lights off when sunlight returns. This helps reduce energy consumption by preventing lights from staying on during the day or turning on too early. The system components include an LDR sensor, microcontroller, and relay to control street lights without manual operation.

    ABSTRACT STREET LIGHT CONTROL USING LDR Automatic Street Light Control System is a simple yet powerful concept,

    which uses transistor as a switch. By using this system manual works are 100% removed. It automatically switches ON lights when the sunlight goes below the visible region of our eyes. This is done by a sensor called Light Dependant Resistor (LDR) which senses the light actually like our eyes. It automatically switches OFF lights whenever the sunlight comes, visible to our eyes. By using this system energy consumption is also reduced because nowadays the manually operated street lights are not switched off even the sunlight comes and also switched on earlier before sunset. In this project, no need of manual operation like ON time and OFF time setting. LDR and micro controller are the main components of the project. The resistance of light dependant resistor (LDR) varies according to the light falling on it. This LDR is connected as biasing resistor of the transistor. According to the light falls on the LDR, the transistor is operated in saturation and cut off region. By makes use of the transistor switching condition controller operates the light through relay. This project uses regulated 12V, 750mA power supply. 7812 & 7805 three terminal voltage regulators are used for voltage regulation. Bridge type full wave rectifier is used to rectify the ac out put of secondary of 230/18V step down transformer.
