This thesis deals with the design and construction of a single-phase switching power supply, which is intended for direct resistive heating of iron components. The power supply is especially intended for resistive heating of horse-shoes. The supply is able to deliver an output current of up to 1500 A at a power of up to 2500 W. The first part of this work deals with the design of individual parts of the unit, the second part is focused on construction and testing of the supply and the last part contains technical documentation. The power supply was successfully tested and the required output parameters were met. However some problems do exist, especially with overheating of the output rectifier and with contacting the heated component to the output leads of the supply. These problems will be discussed in the work. The power supply can be used as an alternative solution to classic means of iron heating. The methods and ideas presented in this work can be applied in a design of a similar power supply with high output current, but most of the design rules are valid generally for the given topology.
