ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Firstly, we would like to thank Sir Anil

Sablaniya under whose guidance we have
completed this project.
We would also like to thank our principal Mr.
Vivek Kumar Chauhan, school and other
teachers who have helped us to complete this
project.
Lastly, we would like to thank our parents and
family who have helped us in our project.
Certification

This is to certify that Aryan Medak, Kaustabh

Saikia, Shankar Pegu & Kaustav Kardong students
of class XII (Science) of Kendriya Vidyalaya, North
Lakhimpur have completed their project on the topic
‘Construction, Working & Theory of Extension
Board’ during the academic year 2019-20 towards
the partial fulfillment of credit for Physics Practical
Evaluation under my supervision

 1. Construction of extension board

Materials Required
1. Switch
2. Plug
3. Plug Socket
4. Extension Chord
5. Board with screws
A) Plug.
Now, we will connect the wires in plug. For this read
carefully the pin names on the plug i.e. L, N. We will
connect red wire at L, Black Wire at N.
1) Open
First of all open the plug and take out three wires from a
thick chord. Now, you will see two colored wires and we
will do wiring on the basis of color code decided earlier.
2) Wiring
Now wire the plug.
L-Yellow wire
N-Black Wire

3) Tighten
Now, tighten the bolts and complete it and cover the plug.

B)The Board:
Now, we will move on to wire the board. We will connect
through one switch and the three plug sockets.

1) Open: Again Take out three colored wires from the

other side of the chord and open the board to wire it.

2) Wiring:
Wiring 1- Connect a wire from switch to the L of the
plug socket.
Wiring 2- Now, connect the Yellow wire to the other
connector of the switch. Now close the Board and screw it
up.
2. Working of extension
board:-

An extension cord, power extender, drop cord,

orextension leadis a length of flexible electrical
power cable(flex) with a plug on one end and
one or more sockets on theother end (usually of
the same type as the plug). The termusually
refers to mains (household AC) extensions but
is also
used to refer to extensions for other types of
cabling. If theplug and power outlet are of
different types, the term "adaptercord" may be
used. Most extension cords range from
aroundtwo to thirty feet in length although they
are made up to 300feet in length.
Theory of extension
board:-

A power strip (also known as an extension

block, power board, power bar, plug
board, pivot plug, trailing gang, trailing
socket, plug bar, trailer lead, multi-
socket, multi-box, socket board, super
plug, multiple socket, multiple
outlet, polysocket and by many other variations)
is a block of electrical sockets that attaches to
the end of a flexible cable (typically with
a mains plug on the other end), allowing
multiple electrical devices to be powered from a
single electrical socket. Power strips are often
used when many electrical devices are in
proximity, such as
for audio, video, computer systems,
appliances, power tools, and lighting. Power
strips often include a circuit breaker to interrupt
the electric current in case of an overload or a
short circuit. Some power strips provide
protection against electrical power surges.
Typical housing styles include strip, rack-
mount, under-monitor and direct plug-in.
