Abstract : Wastage of water has been a common phenomenon in several public locations such as event centre, restaurants, malls, mosque, churches, and also at home due to negligence of tap user or due to sophisticated tap used that visitors may not know how to operate, to curb wastage and prevention of damage to the wash hand basin. A solar-powered automatic wash hand basin system was developed to cater for any challenges that may arise. The solar-powered automatic wash hand basin systemis a sensor-based system with constant a supply of electricity that starts automatically whenever anyone put his/her hand just below the water tap outlet, which significantly reduces water consumption to some extent and can as well eliminate cross-contamination by keeping hands and germs away from commonly-used surfaces especially during this COVID-19 pandemic.This system can help in automating the work of human beings with great ease and without any difficulty which will make the tap to last longer, reduce water usage, and also guide against any form of germs or diseases from cross-contamination.
