An AC-AC voltage controller is a converter that regulates the voltage, current, and

average power supplied from an AC source to an AC load. In the static, solid state switches of these
controllers connect and disconnect the source and the load at regular intervals.

These are used in practical circuits such as light dimmer circuits, induction motor speed sensors,
power traction motors etc. For our practical, we will examine the efficiency of a single-phase AC-AC
circuit using SCRs with emphasis on harmonic output content and input voltage usage with an
introduction of an inductor.

The waveforms produced from the device should also be able to show changes in the waveform.
The waveform changes differ because of the NTP (alpha/α) changes.

The circuit of an inductive powered single-phase voltage controller, which may be a magnetic
relay or an induction motor, is shown in the practical below. The main requirement the circuit will
satisfy is that the output voltage is a regulated input voltage version and has both positive and
negative half cycles.

Practical below displays the circuit of an inductive driven single-phase voltage controller which
may be a magnetic relay or an induction motor. The time-varying magnetic field causes voltage in the
conductor when the current flowing through an inductor shifts, as defined by Faraday's law of
induction.
