Dimmer light switch device for high power applications

摘要

A light switch dimmer device for operating and controlling a current supply to a lighting fixture up to seven hundred (700) watts wherein the light switch dimmer includes a mean for receiving power, a triac, a trigger diode electrically connected to the triac, an RC circuit component shunt, and a variable resistor between 300k ohms and 500k ohms for controlling the voltage to the trigger diode which controls the phase of the triac thereby dictating the voltage applied to a light fixture load. The dimmer may comprise a one-way or three-way switch.
