A system and method for controlling the output power of a heat source. The system includes a user interface so that a user may select the power required from the heat source, a power supply, and a controller that receives a rectified signal having a work ratio that corresponds to a nominal voltage of an alternating voltage signal corresponding to a phase of a power supply. The controller is configured to control the output power of the heat source in accordance with the power selected by the user, and modifies, if necessary, the work cycle of a power signal linked to the heat source in accordance with the work ratio in order to compensate possible differences in the nominal voltage between different power supplier.

1. A system for controlling at least one heat source connected to an alternating voltage power supply, the system comprising: a user interface that permits a user to select an output power of the heat source,a rectifier that produces at least one square and periodic rectified signal corresponding to at least one phase of the alternating voltage produced by the power supply,a controller that is configured to receive the rectified signal and which determines the work ratio of said rectified signal, the work ratio being the ratio between the duration of a positive pulse and the duration of a void interval of the rectified signal, anda modifier disposed in series between the power supply and the rectifier that acts upon the at least one phase of the alternating voltage in a manner that causes the work ratio of the rectified signal produced by the rectifier to be dependent on a nominal voltage of the alternating voltage,the controller being capable of controlling the output power of the heat source in accordance with the power selected by the user, and modifying the work cycle of a power signal linked to the heat source in accordance with the determined work ratio in order to compensate possible differences in the nominal voltage between different power supplies. 2. A system according to claim 1, wherein the rectified signal comprises a void interval and a positive pulse in each period, the modifier comprising a cut-off element that causes the void interval of the rectified signal to end when the nominal voltage of the power supply drops from a specific value. 3. A system according to claim 2, wherein the cut-off element comprises at least one Zener diode that causes the void interval of the rectified signal to end when the nominal voltage of the power supply drops from a value determined by the Zener diode, thereby preventing the passage of current originating from the power supply to the corresponding rectifier. 4. A system according to claim 2, wherein the modifier comprises a start element that cause the void interval of the rectified signal to commence approximately at the moment the alternating voltage signal of said phase passes through zero, from a negative to a positive value. 5. A system according to claim 3, wherein the modifier comprises a start element that cause the void interval of the rectified signal to commence approximately at the moment the alternating voltage signal of said phase passes through zero, from a negative to a positive value. 6. A system according to claim 4 wherein the start element comprises a capacitor that is disposed in parallel to the cut-off element, the capacitor allowing a phase of current originating from the power supply to reach a corresponding rectifier from the moment in which the alternating voltage signal of said power supply passes through zero, from a negative to a positive value. 7. A system according to claim 5 wherein the start element comprises a capacitor that is disposed in parallel to the cut-off element, the capacitor allowing a phase of current originating from the power supply to reach a corresponding rectifier from the moment in which the alternating voltage signal of said power supply passes through zero, from a negative to a positive value. 8. A system according to claim 1 wherein the alternating voltage of the power supply comprises a three phase alternating voltage, the system comprising a modifier and a rectifier for each of said phases. 9. A method of controlling the output power of a heat source, the method comprising: rectifying at least one phase of the alternating voltage to produce at least one square and periodic rectified signal,determining the work ratio of the rectified signal, the work ratio being the ratio between the duration of a positive pulse and the duration of a void interval of the rectified signal,prior to rectifying the at least one phase of the alternating voltage, acting upon the at least one phase of the alternating voltage in a manner that causes the work ratio of the rectified signal produced by the rectifier to be dependent on a nominal voltage of the alternating voltage, andcontrolling the output power of the heat source in accordance with a power selected by the user via a user interface, and modifying the work cycle of a power signal linked to the heat source in accordance with the determined work ratio in order to compensate possible differences in the nominal voltage between different power supplies.
