ABSTRACT:
An AC switching device includes a switch element associated with the primary side of a transformer so that the switching element is turned on or off always at a zero-crossing point where the alternating current shifts from predetermined one of the positive and negative phases to the other. The switching element is turned off at a zero-crossing point which occurs immediately after the arrival of a turn-off command signal while it is turned on at a zero-crossing point which occurs after the arrival of a turn-on command and at the same phase of the alternating current as the turn-off phase.
