This paper shows the validity of experimental designs as an efficient on-site tuning tool for fuzzy controllers, dedicated to electrical engineering applications with multi-objective criteria. Our purpose is to improve the input and output system characteristics that is to say the global quality of the electrical power in a boost rectifier with unity power factor correction. The desirability notion combines here time dynamic and harmonic criteria, it illustrates the trade-off that has to be satisfied between the different properties.
