Figure 4 shows the single line diagram of ?
a single-phase voltage controller. The output
voltage and current can be changed by switching
MCT T, and MCT T, on and off. The output
voltage will be nearly zero when both MCTs are
off and almost full voltage will appear across the
load when both MCTs are completely on. The
rms value of the load voltage can be calculated by

the circuit.
Figure 6 shows the system block diagram
for the experiment. The whole system consists of
an ac source, load, ac switch, and control part.
*l
The ac switch is connected between source and
the load. The input to MCTs of ac switch is from
a firing circuit that gives h12V. The control part
consists of a step-down transformer, IBM286
computer, PCL-711B multilab board, control
board, current sensor, and a firing circuit. The
step-down transformer is used to convert the
source voltage to a 0-5Vac signal. This ac signal
is given as an input to the PCL-711B board. The
current is measured using an LEM current sensor
that gives an input signal to PCL-711B board.

voltage controller. and do all the control. The firing angle is entered
from the computer keyboard. The computer reads
this value, converts it as a counter number, and
sends this number to a counter. When the
program is running, it measures the voltage, and
