Industrial Electronics

One type of circuit control device which may be manual, automatic or multi-contact

What are the primary methods of controlling electrical power?

Common method(s) of controlling electrical power with reactance

A reactive device used in controlling electrical power by using two windings on a common iron core. The control winding is supplied with small dc-current which causes the reactance of a large ac-winding to change accordingly

A saturable reactor with regenerative feedback
