 INTRODUCTION
This is the simple and cost effective automatic
emergency light circuit with light sensing. This
system charges from main supply and gets
activated when main supply is turned OFF. This
emergency lamp will work for more than 8 hours.

When power supply is turned OFF, the circuit

senses the day light and according to the light it
turns on the LED’s. If the light is present even
though power fails the circuit turns OFF the LEDs.
Here LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) is used to
sense the light.

•DC battery – 6V, 4.5Ah
•Pot – 10k
•4 high bright LED, s – 3v@15mA
•red led
•1n4007 diodes – 1
•electrolytic capacitor – 470uF
•ceramic capacitor – 0.1uF
•1k resistors – 2
•10 ohm resistors – 2
•10k resistor – 1
 OPERATION
 Give the connections according to the circuit
diagram.
 While giving the connections, take care in such a way
that there is no common connection between AC
and DC supplies.
 Apply the main supply to the circuit, now you can
observe that LED’s will not glow and battery will
charge.
 Remove the AC supply and place circuit in dark, now
LED’s will glow.
 If you place the circuit in light, then LED’s turns OFF.
 Applications

• Used in child’s study rooms to avoid the

sudden power failure.
• As an emergency lamp in homes.
• Used in security systems to switch ON the
lights automatically during the power failure.
