Summary

This paper presents the design and implementation of software for creating test patterns andcommunicating them to a test platform for electrical appliances as well as the architecture of the testingplatform. The software lets the user design different types of voltage fluctuations, repeat and sequence themmaking testing Series and store them on a PC. The testing Series are communicated with special protocols tothe platform. The architecture of the platform consists of a DC/AC inverter that can produce variable frequencyand variable voltage up to a maximum voltage level, Spike Production Circuit to produce spikes at levels higherthan that of the inverter and electronic relay circuit for switching between the inverter and the Spike ProductionCircuit. Microprocessors control the inverter, the Spike Production Circuit and the relay in order to produce thedesired output waveform to the appliance/device-under-test. The algorithms running on the microprocessors arepresented.
