The course consists of three weeks of materials and is focused on modeling and control of grid-tied power electronics. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to understand, analyze, model, ...

In electrical heating applications, resistive heaters are powered through phase angle-controlled SCR/triac circuits to vary the applied voltage/power to maintain the required temperature. Phase angle ...

The difference between a controller and converter design. Why you want to use a controller versus a converter design. It’s become trendy to multiphase or stack devices as power requirements across ...

The consequences can be costly, ranging from production downtime to compromised equipment and even safety hazards. Certainly, capacitors are indeed responsible for 30% of power electronics failures, ...

Single- and three-phase alternating current (AC) motor speed can be controlled by controlling the frequency of the voltage coming to it. Motor speed has a lot to do with the capacity of refrigeration ...

We are often asked if one ACM20 power meter can be used to measure the total current and total real power (watts) in a 3-wire, single phase, 240V AC mains supply with a neutral conductor and two 120V ...

Every day engineers design products that employ single-phase induction motors. Speed control of single-phase induction motors is desirable in most motor control applications since it not only provides ...

Newnan, GA. Yokogawa Meters & Instruments Corp. has announced that it has developed the LS3300, an AC power calibrator that can accurately and stably produce a wide range of AC power outputs for the ...
