Abstract :
Techniques that simplify the application of duality to power circuits are presented. Duals are derived for ideal switches (including two- and four-quadrant switches) and semiconductor-controlled rectifiers (SCRs), transformers and coupled inductors, and capacitors. A collection of common topological structures and corresponding duals is also given. This library of dual relations allows even complicated circuits to be transformed, primarily by substitution
