Abstract
This thesis explores the design and implementation of electrical safety mechanisms for both human and machine safety, as well as power supply and power quality for the WRepair Powerstation. The WRepair Powerstation serves as a critical component in the electronics repair industry, providing essential charging and data transfer capabilities for various smart devices.
The primary goal of this project is to develop an intuitive power protection mechanism and a reliable power supply system that seamlessly connects all sub-modules of the WRepair Powerstation. Emphasis is placed on ensuring efficient and safe charging processes that safeguard both the machinery and human operators involved.
The technical aspects of this project involve the selection and integration of a suitable protection mechanism that can manage the power delivery and quality across the system. This includes identifying components that can handle the demands of multiple devices and ensuring consistent power quality to prevent any potential damage or safety hazards.
The overall objective of this thesis is to create a user-friendly and reliable powerstation that meets the high standards and needs of professionals in the electronics repair industry. By focusing on safety, efficiency, and reliability, the WRepair Powerstation aims to enhance the functionality and safety of electronic repair workspaces.
