AC Power Strength Controller System

This project controls AC power using firing angle control of thyristors. A user enters a desired power percentage using a keypad, which a microcontroller uses to adjust the firing angle and match the load power. A TRIAC and LCD display show the power level provided to the load.

AC Power Strength Controller System

The project aims at controlling the AC power by using the concept of firing

angle control of thyristors. One can enter the required percentage of power supply

through a keypad. The input is provided to a microcontroller of 8051 family that initiate

the firing angle to adjust the load power. For matching the power to the required one,

a TRIAC is used in series with the AC load. A LCD screen is used to display the

power percentage that is provided by the user.

This system overcomes the faults in the present system and provides a solution for

light illumination control mechanism of the lamp. This system is built by using an 8051

microcontroller and based on the principle of firing angle control of thyristors, which in

turn can control the illumination of lamp. An LCD display unit is used, which displays

entered percentage of the illumination through a matrix keypad. The firing angle control

of thyristors is done by the microcontroller, according to the desired percentage

entered by the user. Based on this input the microcontroller will automatically adjust

the power delivered to the lamp through a solid state switching mechanism.
