I was asked a question for which I had no answer. Out of curiosity I am posting it here:

How to conmute three EL wires fed with a unique inverter following a preprogrammed sequence (irrelevant here).

Those EL wires offer a capacite load to the inverter which, just for reference, feeds them with 150 V AC 400 Hz . In fact, both values may vary a lot from model to model. It seems that a point to care of is that the inverter should be not left unloaded during the switching.

If my question implies myself being wrong in something, it's OK, considering that I have no experience on switching AC except a basic aplication with a triac. Even more if we need to conmute between several loads.

The EL wires (electroluminisdcent wires) are simple to use, albeit demanding a careful connection (jacket cutting and soldering) but when it comes to switch several of them I don't know how to do it.

Interested / intrigued. :?:
