Don't have much experience on generators so I don't know how you want to use the Thyristor controller. When I need thyristor controllers for heating applications I go to use United Automation. I know they have UL approval on some of their controllers.

I need an analog input there i can controle the phase angle 0-100%. It is for a windturbine.

The ones from United Automation can t do that i think.

And the one from Phasetronics is only 1 phase.

I will try and look some more. So if anyone have some more info then thanks.

I recall they used to have a special board to control trhee individual controller one for each phase, so you install a potentiometer on that board and you can handle three phases.
