ABSTRACT:
An electrical resistance heater controller is provided with a plurality of circuit branches connected in parallel with each other and in series with a heating element and an external AC power source. Each circuit branch includes the series connection of a capacitor and a solid state switch. The switches are controlled by a gating device to switch during the zero crossing of the AC source voltage waveform. Power delivered to the heating element is controlled by varying the amount of series capacitance in the circuit.
