Applied Electrical Engineering for Brazilian Farms

Part I. A modified sinusoidal signal with voltage of 110VAC and frequency of 60Hz is generated by a push-pull converter and a full-bridge inverter. The power is 600W. A 12VDC battery is used as the source of energy. A current and voltage sensor are used to improve the performance. A high temperature and an under voltage protection are implemented. Key words: converter, inverter, push-pull, full-bridge, control. Part II. Understanding the principles of rural electrification can be a decisive factor for a pig or chicken producer. Even though genetics is an important factor in the breeding of these animals, resources such as the electrical system are indispensable to guarantee zootechnical productivity. This book will cover the fundamentals of electrification in the field, showing basics concepts to apply in fields, to bring benefits to farmer. Key words: Field. Electricity. Basic Concepts The Authors would like to thanks the GLOBE EDIT due the opportunity to publish our studies.
