18. Draw the schematic and wiring diagram for long corridor or godown which should meet the following Requirements:
When a person enters the corridor from one end, he can put on first light L1 from first switch S1. When he reaches
switchboard No. 2 he can switch off the first light and simultaneously put ‘on’ the second light by operating S2. When he
reaches near switch S3 and operates it, he can put off L2 and simultaneously put on L3. Similarly, when he reaches near S5
and operates it, the last lamp L4 also goes off. The whole process can be repeated in the reverse manner. Any number of
persons can enter the corridor at any end and carry out the above operation by operating the switches in sequence. The
circuit will not work if the sequence of operation of switches is not followed. (2+5)
