Hello,
I tried to build inverter circuit by using following link.

http://www.geocities.com/ CapeCanaveral/lab/5185/ circuit.html

(SCR inverter)

I tried to run this circuit in Multisim software but I did not get correct result. Please help me to simulate this circuit.

If you have any other circuit which is working better then I have then please suggest me.

Thanks for your help.

You're just going to simulate it, correct? You're not going to attempt to build a circuit that outputs a 300V, 400Hz waveform, right? Doesn't sound like a very safe project for you.
 
no i am not going to build this circuit with this big transformer. may be i am using step down transformer for low voltage and frequency.
 
Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
