08:12 AM aandrew: hm... if I have three 30W audio amplifiers spitting out three sine waves, and have the outputs of those going to three single phase transformers connected delta-delta or delta-wye, what's a "nice" way to have a programmable load? The simplest way is just switched resistors with relays. I don't think I can do it nicely with linear mosfets
08:23 AM aandrew: I don't need infinitely variable either, just a few current settings so the relay option is probably just the most straightforard
