    Boost AC circuit

    Run the cable, forget the rest. You could also consider getting a lecky.

    SCR series regulator

    7 amp is a pretty tall order. Why not use a conventional switch mode power supply?

    Boost AC circuit

    mmm...tend to think there are other things at play here as distance alone is not the problem.

    Boost AC circuit

    Maybe just run out some 10 sq mm copper cable. ⚡️

    Two-way 12V motor control using arduino and darlington?

    You could also use transistors and a couple of changeover relays.

    12v Wind turbine

    Basically a microcontroller takes sensor inputs and depending on the internal program, turns on or off external devices. Your problem is as outlined in the beginning of my other reply ie you simply do not have enough grunt and no added piece of anything is going to help short of a set of blades...

    Boost AC circuit

    35 to 40v drop while both motors are "running" is some serious Vd. I would hazard a guess that if this was a multimeter measurement then the inrush is much higher. Something seriously wrong as Minder says, it should be no where near this with info supplied. How far from your supply authority...

    Where do you find these motors? That's some current.....:eek:

    Two-way 12V motor control using arduino and darlington?

    Just use a H-bridge. Designed for the job. Example youtube video........

    Please Help Water Pump Issue

    Looks like it has had a pretty hard life and that growl before it trips seems to indicate a deeper problem. Appears as though a screwdriver is your only piece of "test gear" so take it to someone who knows motor repair and perhaps can get you a new one.

    Water level indicator issues

    That....:D...plus,....... shouldn't there be a ground connection to the tank? mmm...on second thoughts, maybe not BUT the probe on the left is touching the tank bottom so is this correct? Maybe just need to recheck your connections as mistakes can easily be made like for example with the...

    Differential signaling RS-485

    This shows part of you query but you may have to study up a bit more on the subject to fully understand. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-485#Signals

    Please Help Water Pump Issue

    Well, it's either a crook motor or a crook overload. Impossible to say from a distance. Maybe try the motor with a new breaker first?

    Oven not working as expected.

    In one of the photos you showed the bottom view of the selector switch, nice and clear. Would it be possible to get a similar shot of the cam side of the switch so we can see the contacts within?

    Oven not working as expected.

    Not really, just needs tracing out. Sounds like it is in manual mode. You really need a meter for the remainder and a copy of the wiring layout. Latter is a must if anyone is to help as we need to see where to go next and use the diagram to guide you. Are you sure there is no wiring...

    Oven not working as expected.

    Went through the manual you supplied a link to and read primarily on clock set-up. I will go through these one at a time and if something clicks that you might have missed, it might help getting your oven to turn on manually./ or at least, remove any possibility of the clock being at fault as...

    Oven not working as expected.

    Still sounds like an auto trip to me......... did you check the user manual on how to reset back to manual control? Your description makes me believe you are trying things you think may be the problem without checking the user manual. Reason I add this is because these things can trick even a...

    Oven not working as expected.

    First thing would be get yourself a multimeter. Did you actually check to see the clock was not on automatic, regardless of what you think you may have "bypassed"?

    What's an easy way to supply power to a breadboard without using batteries?

    Ebay have an adaptor complete with regulators to plug in to breadboards. You may have to check the current rating suits your needs but then breadboards are not built for higher currents. Perhaps just use terminal strip.
