TCPAR(Thyristor control

phase angle regulator)

J.VISHNUPRIYA(17TUEE247)
 Inthe phase angle regulator ,the phase
angle regulation is obtained by injecting
voltage in phase quadrature with the
system voltage.

 InTCPAR the thyristor switches are used

to control the injected voltage.

 Thetransfomer winding is connected such

that the injected voltage should be in the
same phase with the system voltage.
 By controlling the value of the delay angle
of the thyristor require voltage regulation
can be obtained.

 Circuit
of the TCPAR is same as thyristor
controlled tap changer.
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
 The complete secondary winding of the
transformer is split into two part.

 The lower terminal and the midpoint

winding is operated by switch SW1. When
switch SW1 is closed the voltage across
the resistive load is V1.

 The complete secondary winding will be

connected across load R when the switch
SW2 is closed and the voltage across the
load is V2
 The gate of thyristor valves SW1 and SW
2 is controlled by the delay angle α with
respect to the zero crossing instant of the
voltage.
WAVEFORM
 From the waveform at α = 0, thyristor switch
SW turns on and a voltage across the load is
v1.

 At α, valve SW2 is turned ON which

commutates the current from the conducting
thyristor valve SW1, by forcing a negative
anode to cathode voltage across it and
connecting the output to the upper tap with
voltage V2.

 Valve SW2 continues conducting until the

next current zero is reached, whereas the
previous gating sequence continues as shown
by the load voltage waveform.
