Float Switch connection in Water Pump:
This diagram shows how to connect a float switch connection in a water pump. Here we use a magnetic contactor, a DP MCB ( Double Pole Miniature Circuit Breaker ), a single-phase water pump, a float switch, and a water tank. If you want to see this circuit diagram animation connection please see our youtube video below the post.

Components used to make the Float Switch connection in Water Pump:
01. Magnetic Contcator

A magnetic contactor is an electrical device used for load control, automation, and protection. It is much like a magnetic reel. However, relays are generally used for low power and voltage, on the other hand, when we think of high power, these heavy-duty contractors only come to mind. It basically works by switching the load on and off. It has 3 terminals whose inputs are denoted as L1, L2, L3, and outputs as T1, T2, and T3. The circuit of the load is made in automation mode or protection using auxiliary contacts. It has two types of terminals. 1) Normally Open (NO). 2) Normally Closed (NC).
02. Single Phase Motor

The measuring device with the help of which the electric power or energy of a circuit is measured is called Energy Meter (Energy Meter). Also called a watt-hour or kilowatt-hour meter. For home appliances, we used a single-phase energy meter. The single-phase energy meter is directly connected between the line and the load. Both coils produce their magnetic fields, when the meter is connected to the supply line, and the load. Energy meters are used in homes and in industrial applications where we want to found that how much energy is being consumed by home appliances and electrical equipment.

03. DP MCB

Double pole MCB can control two wires. This circuit breaker is generally used in single-phase electric lines. Double pole MCB circuit breaker input has two wires supply two wires and an output. In a single-phase line, A double-pole MCB circuit breaker is used to give good production. This circuit breaker is provided through phase and neutral circuit breaker, it is very safe. This circuit breaker is preferred for home appliances. A DP MCB usually trips for 2 reasons 1. Overload 2. Short circuit.
04. Float Switch

Fig 5: Float Switch |
Float switch The water tank can basically be controlled with this switch. It basically works like a switch. This float switch has a magnetic reed sensor. Float Switch It is a water level controller. With this, you can create interesting projects. The Float Switch is Behind the Panel at The Bottom of the Dishwasher door, directly under the float. With this float switch, you can control the water tank motor/pump motor of your house in which water is raised in the tank.
