INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC

Rain water detector is a simple circuit which detects the rain and makes
an alert
It can be used in several areas and places where the user wants to be
alerted the moment a single raindrop falls.

 WHY THIS PROJECT
This circuit enables you to manage your outside settings when it rains. You can
close your windows or get ready for rain water harvesting after hearing the
alarm. With some small modification the circuit can also be used as water level
indicator, agriculture field irrigation system etc. The biggest advantage of this
circuit is that it’s simple, reliable and consumes less power and its less costly

 WORKING

It is a simple circuit in which positive terminal of battery is connect in series with

a NPN transistor. Buzzer and led are connected in series with the transistor.
Positive side of rain sensor is connected with emitter of transistor and negative
side is connect with the base of the transistor.
So In this circuit. When the rain drop falls on sensor. As the water is good
conductor, it completes the circuit and turns on the buzzer and led light.
