Abstract— A state-of-the-art-technology was used to
design the unbalanced three phase motor controller. The
fluctuation of line voltage has been questioned in recent
times due to the use of heavy powered machine with
three phases. This paper is focused on deriving a control
scheme to drive a three phase motor that could be used
in industry or households. The very simple circuitry has
been employed in this design. To do this, extensive
MATLAB analysis and PSpice software was conducted
in order to optimize the control system and finally the
results are practically verified.

I. Introduction
Fluctuations of line voltages are of special attention
now-a-days. A need for reasonable power is required to
smoothly operate electrical and electronic appliances.
Quite often it happens that line voltages of some phases
go down to a low level or high level. Therefore the line
voltage becomes unbalanced. A large number of
machines used in industries such as garments sectors,
agricultural industry, cement factory, ceramic or glass
factory, cold storage, dying sectors and so on are
needed balanced voltage. For these erratic conditions of
line voltages the valuable machines becomes damaged.
Besides sometimes it makes sparking and makes serious
problems in industry such as burning.
Under such erratic conditions of line voltage, in our
country re-wireable fuse or miniature circuit breaker are
normally used to protect different households from
under and over-voltage conditions is explained in S.
Islam et.al, [1]. Considering this factor, a protective
device like over-voltage and over-current with time
delay unit has been developed for ensuring a
dependable and an effective protection to small
households in year 1992 that explained in S. Islam et.al,
[2]. This system is relatively slow and designed in
transistor based. For the better performance another
device has been developed to protect households in year
1994 which explained in S. Islam et.al, [3]. The
operation speed of this device is better but it was
designed in transistor based. In year 2011, another
attractive device has been developed for single-phase
line to protect electronic appliances from over-load
which explained the author M.A.A. Mashud et.al, [4].
In this design transistor module has been replaced by IC
module and use Hall Effect principle.
In year 2012, the author M.A.A. Mashud et. al, [5]
explained single phase line voltage controller using
microcontroller. In this design all electronic
components and ICs has been replaced by using a
microcontroller. But all the above designs are for single
phase line voltage controller.
Now, the author developed a three phase unbalanced
line voltage controller. Easily available components and
simple circuitry, the system should be beneficial in
providing low-cost.
