INTRODUCTION :
Electrical wiring is an electrical installation of cabling and associated devices such as switches, distribution boards, sockets and light fittings in a structure. Wiring is subjected to safety standards for design and installation. Allowable wire and cable types and sixes are specified according to the circuit operating voltage and electric current capability, with further restriction on environmental conditions ,such as ambient temperature range, moisture levels, and exposure to sunlight and chemicals .
Associated circuit protection, control and distribution devices within a building’s wiring system are subject to voltage, current and functional specification. It is necessary to select proper type of wiring scheme for the domestic purpose. Thus a network of wires connecting various accessories for distribution of electrical energy from the supplier meter board to the numerous electrical energy consuming devices through controlling and safety devices is known as Electrical wiring.

Domestic electric circuits:
1.Electric power is usually generated at places which are far away from the places where it is consumed . At the generating station, the electric power is generated at 11KV volts . This voltage alternates at a frequency of 50HZ.
2.The power is transmitted over a long distance at high voltages to minimize the loss of energy in the transmission.
3.The electric power line enter our house through three wires -namely the live wire, the neutral wire and the earth wire.
4.To avoid confusion we follow a colour code for insulating these wires.
5.The ted wire is the live wire, and the black wire is neutral, the earth wire is given green plastic insulation.
Domestic wiring
1.The live wire has a high potential of 220V whereas the neutral wire has zero potential .Thus the potential difference between the live wire and the neutral wire is 220-0=220V.
2.The earth wire is much thicker in size and is made of copper. One end of it is connected to a copper plate buried deep under the earth. The earth connection is made to the electric meter and then the main switch.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
2. Safety
Check all walls for wires and pipes
before cutting out for any new cables
and boxes. A detector (shown here) can
identify cables in the wall.
If in any doubt whatever consult a
qualified electrician. There is a legal
requirement to obtain a completion
certificate from a qualified electrician,
for any work you do that requires a
mains connection.
For any work within circuits a minor
works certificate should be obtained.
3. Safety –cont.
Turn off the power and remove the fuse
from any circuit you are working on.
Make sure no-one can turn the power on
by mistake.
Use only approved materials and tools.

10. How it works
An electrical supply come
to your home at a main,
sealed fuse called a
service head.
From there, it will go to
your meter via a pair of
large black wire.
The meter measures how
much electricity you use.
At no time should you
touch either the service
head or the meter
(offence).
Main Unit
11. From main unit, the
electricity will go to your
consumer unit, from
where it is distributed
around the house.
Each circuit is fused at
this box either by an
amp rated fuse wire, or
a trip switch if you
have an RCD (Residual
Current Device).
How it works – cont.
13. Basic Equations
The amount of electricity available to you is measured in
Volts (V), and the rate at which it flows along its conductors
is measured in amps (ampere, A). The power required by
any appliance is measured in Watts (W). The formula for
working out the correct cable and fuse is; Watts divided by
Volts equals Amps .
P = VI
Or, I = P/V
And, V =IR
So, P = VI = V(V/R) = V2/R
Or P = VI = (IR)I = I2R
Maximum power that can be served by a socket adapter
(multiple slot);
P = VI = 240 V x 13 A = 3120 Watts
Where I = fuse rating in the adapter
14. Electrical Circuit
• Electricity flows along the live (red) wire,
feeding whatever is required and then returns
along the neutral wire to the consumer unit
(supply).
• The flow can be stopped by the insertion of a
switch, which is placed in the live wire.
• Switches, most often, will be linked from
your ceiling rose through a separate cable,
even though one of the wires in this cable is
black it is still live.
• For a switch, 2 wires are ALIVE, i.e red
(coming in) and black (going out).
15. Cables
Fixed wiring is done in cable. This consists of individual
conductors (wires) sheathed separately, by insulation to
prevent leakage.
The wires are then jointly covered by the outer sheath.
The wires are colour coded, red for live, black for neutral
and green/yellow striped for earth. Modern cables are
sheathed with PVC which has an indefinite life, older
cables were rubber with about 20/30 years life.
If your home has these cables do not attempt electrical
extensions with them.
16. Cables –cont.
1.5mm2 is most common in lighting circuits.
When installed it must not exceed 110m in length
and carries a fuse rating of 5 amps. (6 amps if
used in conjunction with a miniature circuit breaker,
MCB). It is acceptable to run 1200 Watts on this
cable, (equivalent of 12 x 100 Watt bulbs), but
lighting circuits are normally run independently on
each floor of your house.
2.5mm2 (as above but larger) is usually used for
the installation of power sockets on a ring main.
The circuit uses a 30 amp fuse at the consumer
unit (32 with a MCB). Cable length must not
exceed 60m or 50m with an MCB.
18. Flex
Flex, is simply flexible cable
and is used for connecting
appliances. The colour
coding is different using
brown for live, blue for
neutral and green/yellow
stripes for earth.
There are many more
cables for connecting
cookers etc, but these are
generally run directly from
the consumer unit and
require a professional
electrician for their
installation.
20. Fuses
Fuses are placed into a
circuit as a deliberate weak
point. If anything goes
wrong within your circuit,
the fuse will "blow" first.
With the modern RCD
boxes, the trip switch will
go.
BUT BEFORE YOU PUSH
IT BACK ON, LOCATE
THE REASON WHY IT
TRIPPED. Most of the time
it is because the circuit has
been overloaded or there is
an earth fault. If you are in
doubt contact an electrician.
21. RING MAIN WIRING

on the cables.
22. Ring Main
Electricity loses power over long lengths of cable and trying to put
too much power through a cable which is not designed for it, is
dangerous, so a ring main delivers power from both ends to keep
the load as light as possible.
The back of a socket on a ring main looks like this.
The other type of circuit used to power your home is a radial circuit.
There are not so common and can easily be turned into a ring
circuit.
23. A separate ring main is usually installed on
every floor of the house to make sure
things are kept safe.
A ring main uses 2.5mm2 cable (cross
sectional area) comprising of a live,
neutral and earth.
The floor area a ring main serves is also
governed (regulation). The maximum area
for a ring main is 100 square meters.
Ring Main – cont.
24. An average house has a footprint of about 64-70
square meters so this allows for the continuation
of the ring into a porch or garage etc.
The ring main must be protected by a 30 amp
fuse if it is on a cartridge fuse board, or a 32
amp MCB fuse.
The cable itself can be up to 60 meters long if it
is protected by a cartridge fuse and 50 meters
long if protected by an MCB.
Ring Main – cont.
25. There is no limit to the number of sockets you can have on a ring
main but there is a limit to the number of spurs you can have from
those sockets or from the wiring between them.
See next section on adding an extra socket. You can also extend
the ring main if you need to.
26. High Power Appliance
Units or appliances which use a lot of power, like
cookers and showers must be installed on their
own circuits, so please check the appliances
you are considering using on your ring main.
It is also a regulation that any socket which is
capable of being used to supply power outside
of the house is protected by an RCD.
Most modern consumer units will provide this
protection but again it is vital that you get a
qualified electrician to check and approve any
installation you may consider.
27. EXTENDING A RING MAIN
Summary: Extending a ring main. Adding
sockets to a ring main. Putting more sockets in a
room or office.
If you need extra sockets in a new room or turn
an old room into an office, it may not be possible
to add extra sockets from your existing ring main.
It is not particularly difficult to extend a ring main
but you must remember that certain rules apply
about the floor area and length of cable one ring
main may serve and use. (refer to Wiring Rules
Table)
28. The diagrammes below show how you can break
into a ring main with junction boxes to extend it.
There is no set limit to the number of sockets on a
ring main as long as within the rules mentioned
above.
Obviously you will not want to have surface cables
all over the place; so remember if you place new
cables in any floor, roof or ceiling void they must
not be covered in insulation which will make them
too hot and if they are buried in the wall they must
be in a protective conduit and only run vertically
from above or below the sockets.
Socket and switch plates in plastic, stainless steel
and brass.
EXTENDING A RING MAIN –cont.
29. The first image shows a simple ring main to
and from the consumer unit.
30. The image below shows the main extended via 2
new 30 amp junction boxes.
31. RADIAL CIRCUIT WIRING
A radial circuit is a mains power circuit found in some
homes to feed sockets and lighting points.
Simply a length of appropriately rated cable feeding one
power point then going on to the next. The circuit
terminates with the last point on it.
It does not return to the consumer unit or fuse box as
does the more popular circuit, the ring main.
32. RADIAL CIRCUIT –cont.
The descriptions below apply only to a
circuit for power sockets.
There is no limit to the number of sockets
used on a radial circuit and, just like a ring
main, spurs, or extra sockets, can be
added.
The number of spurs must not exceed the
number of existing sockets.
33. Spur Socket
Very often we find we do not have enough
sockets at home. It is not a difficult job to add
another but there are certain rules to follow.
A spur can be connected to an existing socket,
on either a ring main or a radial circuit, providing
that socket does not already have a spur.
That is only one spur per socket is allowed and
the number of spurs must not exceed the
number of sockets.
If this is necessary in any part of your home, the
only way you can do this is by adding another
ring main or by extending one of the ring mains
you have.
34. Spur –cont.
The spur must be connected to the
existing circuit using the same cable as
used in the main circuit.
A general rule for a ring main is that if you
only have two cables in the back of an
existing socket then it is ok to spur.
If there are 3 cables coming out of any
socket then it is NOT OK to spur.
35. SPUR
• The cables to and from any
spurs you connect must be
protected by a conduit of some
kind; be it on the surface or
buried in the wall.
• If you bury cables in the wall
they must only run vertically,
not horizontally.
• Cables may be placed in floor
or ceiling voids but not
wrapped in, insulation where
they may become too hot.
36. A spur can be added to any part of the circuit providing
the rules above are followed. If there is not an existing
socket near enough, you can connect into the cable by
means of a junction box for your new spur.
37. TNB Bill
Exercise:
