Arduino: Project 28: Controlling my study lamp through relay module

OK, so this project is basically about controlling devices directly connected to the AC main power supply (please exercise caution!!). So here I have controlled my study lamp using a relay and the Arduino. It’s one step closer to a Home Automation system!!

int relay=7;

void setup() {
  pinMode(relay, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(relay, HIGH);
  delay(3000);
  digitalWrite(relay, LOW);
  delay(5000);
}
