Rectifier Controlled Circuit.

Abstract

An electrical circuit providing for equal power consumption by the included load elements when selectively energized by independent power sources of differing voltages, through control of the path of current flow through the load elements by rectifiers, the rectifiers being disposed to permit current flow in a direction through the load elements in series when a high voltage source energizes the circuit, through one pair of terminals and, without alteration of the circuit, in parallel through the load elements when a low voltage source energizes the circuit through another pair of terminals.
