Abstract

766,758. Switching systems; systems depending on the use of transformers. PHILIPS ELECTRICAL INDUSTRIES, Ltd. Jan. 31, 1955 [Feb. 2, 1954], No. 2841/55. Class 38 (4). In a tap-changing system or a transformer or the like 12 supplying variable voltage to a load, such as airfield lamps 13, as described in Specifications 721,112 and 724,637 the tuned circuit is now replaced by a resistor 6 in the common supply lead 7 to the coils 1, 2 of the tap-changing switches 8, 9 and these switches are provided with back contacts 15, 16 connected in series across the resistor so as to short-circuit it when the switches are de-energized. Full voltage is thus available for operating either of the switches 8, 9 when its corresponding control switch 3 or 4 is closed, the voltage being reduced to a hold-in value by the resistor 6 when the tap-changing switch has operated. Closure of the control switch associated with the other tapchanging switch connects the two coils in parallel, thereby diverting current from the coil of the first switch and causing it to drop out. This reinstates the short circuit on the resistor 6, so that full voltage is now available for operating the other of the tap-changing switches which, in consequence, responds and reinserts the resistor 6. To ensure that the first tap-changing switch remains " dropped-out ", it is arranged to interrupt its coil circuit by the action of dropping out. Thus it may mechanically trip its control switch to the " off " position, or may be have normally-open auxiliary contacts arranged in a holding circuit.
