Re: SRSG Phase Control

Hi Aric,
I didn't get it either but went ahead and built one for my little 1/30 hp.
motor. I didn't find  a whole lot of difference when expereminting with
different values of capacitor . The thing sure works a whole lot better than
varying the phase manually though! Best of luck,
Robert Hanford
