Abstract
An electrical circuit adapted to control the operation of a refrigerant compressor in an automotive type air conditioning system. The electrical circuit has a pair of branch circuits, an impedance for connection in the branch circuits so as to be respectively energized and shunted therein, and condition responsive devices for enabling and disenabling one of the branch circuits. Switching means is operable for sequentially energizing and then shunting the impedance in the branch circuits to control the energization thereof subject to the enablement and disenablement of the one circuit branch by the condition responsive device. A method of operating an electrical circuit to control the operation of a refrigerant compressor in an automotive type air conditioning system is also disclosed.
