Hello,
I have this project with a relay. My kitchen lamp has 4 light bulbs but I just have one ON/OFF switch to control all 4's.
I want to use an Arduino to code and close the relays output according to on how I use the switch (in time).
-
A series of incremental relay activated: SWITCH PRESSED OFF-ON all 4 lamps at first (4 relays closed), SWITCH PRESSED OFF-ON 1 lamp, SWITCH PRESSED OFF-ON 2 lamps, SWITCH PRESSED OFF-ON 3 lamp, SWITCH PRESSED OFF-ON 4 lamp.
-
Activating the switch quickly OFF-ON-OFF-ON could go directly to the 1 lamp relay setting OR all 4 lamps relay setting.
My question is for the hardware. What do I need to get?
Here is what I've got so far:
UNO R3 MEGA328P ATMEGA16U2 Development board for Arduino+ USB Cable SP
2016 New DC 5V 4-Mechanical Channel Relays Shield Module For Arduino UNO R3 XBEE
Breadboard Power Supply Kits with 65pcs Jumper Wire Cable For Arduino Project MA
Electronic Parts Pack KIT for ARDUINO Component Resistors Switch Button Top
1602 16x2 Character LCD Display Module HD44780 Controller Blue Arduino
ESP-12E ESP8266 UART WIFI Wireless Shield for Arduino UNO R3
Ethernet Shield W5100 For Arduino Main Board 2009 UNO ATMega 328 1280 MEGA2560
Arduino DS3231 AT24C32 IIC Module Precision RTC Real Time Clock Quare Memory
My concern is for the high voltage. I am not an electrician I am just an enthusiast.
The breadboard doesn't seems safe enough for development over the 215v relays.
What should I get to test my high voltage relays?
Any ideas for high voltage parts to test this safely?
Do you guys think of anything else that is missing ?
To hook it up later, any idea for a small connection terminal before and after the Arduino Relay Shield?
Thank you
Regards
