tutorial on how to know if your TRIAC is damaged. In this video tutorial on easy electronics projects, the first thing we are going to see is how to measure the TRIAC electronic component with a tester or digital multimeter used in power electronics, then we are going to do a test. operation, we will take as reference a BTA16 600b TRIAC, also known as a triode from the thyristor family, the difference between the TRIAC and the THYRISTOR is that the TRIAC is bidirectional and the thyristor is unidirectional, it can be said that the TRIAC is a switch for alternating current, for the dynamic test we are going to use the test cable with a filament bulb, the triode, some crocodile or alligator clips, a 470 ohm resistor, but it can be used for the 1k or 2k test, i I am going to use it at 5 watts but it can be used at less power. We are going to connect all of this to the 220/230v electrical current at home and we are going to see how the TRIAC works.
