Explanation of Solution

A two-wire control circuit can be a pressure switch, toggle switch, simple switch, limit switch, float switch, or a thermostat which breaks or makes a connection to a motor through definite on and off positions.

The advantage of two-wire control devices is that the motor is operated (or controlled) by an automatic control device without requiring the presence of a human operator. For example, if the motor is stopped by power failure while the contacts are closed, the two wire control device will not open, that remains in a closed condition. Therefore, the motor can restart when the power is restored.

Conclusion:

Thus, the advantage of the use of two-wire control devices is explained.

Please write all the formulas clearly for each case first, then solve the question by hand on paper and send a clear photo of the solution. Thanks a lot A three-phase bridge-inverter is fed from a d.c. source of 200 V. If the load is star-connected of 10 02/phase pure resistance, determine the RMS load current, the required RMS current rating of the thyristors and the load power for (i) 120° firing, and (ii) 180° firing. [Ans (i) 120° firing IL (rms) = 8.16 A, IT(rms) = 9.8 A. Load power = 2000 W. (ii) 180° firing IL (rms) = 9.43 A, IT (rms) = 6.67 A. Load power = 2667 W.]
