    Hello Alain,

    You're right, I don't have enough triacs in stock to allow many tests

    Okay for the Irms but still knowing this, how must I understand the datasheet (this one, for example https://www.distrelec.com/distrelec/...-T8_Data-E.pdf)?

    Witch caracteristic is the Saturation Voltage then?

    I don't know witch value(s) I need to take care of to calculate the triac... sorry, I'm only a an electrician...
