Controlled switching circuits based on non-linear resistive elements

Based on the results of the analysis of resistive circuits, a new circuit of an optoelectronic contactless voltage relay is developed in the article and its application in the power supply system is considered. The possibility of controlling the operating modes of various installations for amplifying electrical signals using optothyristors is presented and methods for their inclusion in electrical circuits are given. Optoelectronic contactless voltage relays were tested under laboratory conditions to obtain input-output characteristics and capacitance voltage waveforms. Based on the improvement of the proposed circuit, a circuit of an optoelectronic contactless voltage relay is developed and provides a high degree of reliability. The proposed voltage relay circuit is simulated using the Electronics Workbench and MATLAB R2014a programs, the results of which show that the changes in the shape of the output voltage curve are close to a sinusoid and coincide with the results obtained analytically.
