Triac leakage

Feb 11, 2011 3 Replies

Hi



Just curious!



I wish to change the phases using triacs - Three triacs are connected to the three pahses (220V). The other terminals are bound to the output. By firing selectively a triac the output is connected to the respective phase.



What will be the problem?


Thanks in advance for your response. Archer

Designing the control circuitry, or coming up with the cash to buy one that somebody has already done?

This has been routine for decades.

** If two triacs ever come on at the same time - things will get interesting...

Better post this question over at " sci.electronics.design ".

It's way outside basic electronics.

Nothing except, you aint changing the phase, you're just deciding when to turn it on to the output. And on top of that, you need another 3 scr's just to get the other side, since most 3 phase systems have no common. If you are working with a common and you are only trying to get DC as the results, I Guess that would work.
