Hi there, I carefully reviewed your 3-phase submersible motor auto-switch requirements, including 415 V AC phase monitoring, single-phasing protection, the 30–45 second startup delay, fast fault trip, low-cost MCU architecture, relay output, and compact production-oriented PCB. I am a mechatronics engineer with almost half a decade of experience in embedded electronics, power-supply design, PCB layout, hardware prototyping, and microcontroller-based systems. My background is well suited to the hardware side of this project, particularly the high-voltage sensing, power-supply architecture, protection circuitry, relay interface, component selection, and compact manufacturable PCB design. Because embedded hardware, power electronics, and PCB design are already part of my skillset, I can approach the design efficiently with particular attention to safety, creepage/clearance, noise immunity, reliable phase detection, and cost-effective mass production. Please send me a message so we can discuss the project and start. Best regards, Samuel tshibangu

Hi, I reviewed your requirements for the 3-phase submersible motor auto switch. I can handle the hardware design and PCB development in KiCad, with particular attention to the 415V three-phase input, phase-loss/unbalance sensing, MCU/relay interface, PCB isolation and manufacturing constraints. Before finalizing the design, I would first define and verify: - 3-phase sensing and single-phasing detection circuit - Safe separation between 415V sensing and low-voltage MCU sections - 12V relay and 5V MCU power architecture - 30–45 s startup delay and 2–3 s phase-loss trip logic - Relay driver and protection - Compact PCB layout suitable for production - Component selection based on cost and availability Deliverables can include the complete KiCad schematic and PCB source files, Gerbers, BOM with MPNs, and the required firmware source/HEX files. One point I would like to clarify before starting: do you already have a preferred MCU from Padauk/Nuvoton/Puya/STC, or should the MCU be selected based on cost, availability and programming requirements? I’m also open to discussing the transformerless power-supply implementation before finalizing the schematic, since safety, isolation and production requirements are important for a 415V design.

The 415V capacitive power supply is the most dangerous part of your spec — it has no galvanic isolation, so no debugging on live mains can be done without an isolation transformer. I've written firmware for microcontrollers with sensors and drive control in C/C++, so I can implement the 30–45 s logic and the 2–3 s shutdown on phase loss. The schematic and PCB need to be reviewed by a certified engineer. Will someone on-site be assembling the prototype for you?
