Here I have tried to investigate a few enhanced triac based phase controller circuits which can be recommended for controlling or operating inductive loads like transformers and AC motors much safely than earlier traditional triac based circuit dimmer circuits. Using Triacs for Controlling AC Loads A Triac is a semiconductor device used for switching AC […]

Motor Protection Circuits – Over Voltage, Over Heat, Over Current
In this post I have explained a few DC motor protection circuit from harmful conditions like over voltage and under voltage situations, over current, overload etc.. DC motor failures are commonly experienced by many of the users, especially in places where the relevant motor is run for many hours a day. Replacing motor parts or […]
AC Motor Speed Controller Circuits using Back EMF
In this post I have explained a few circuit diagrams for building AC motor speed controller circuits using back EMF concept. Working Principle of AC Motors All household appliances like electric drills, sanders, sewing machines, and food mixers utilize AC electric motors of the series-wound type. While in operation, these motors generate a back-electromotive force […]
