Solution: The circuits below is placed inside a small
plastic box which is placed inside the house. A
power jack for the +12v input and a terminal block for the earth ground and sensor
wire connections are installed. Two additional terminals were connected to a siren.
Central to the design is a closed pushbutton switch. When
pressed, the button would test the circuit by simulating a broken fence wire. |
