Question

A single phase half controlled bridge rectifier is supplying a load as shown below.

Which one of the following is true for average load voltage and instantaneous load current?

Open in App

Solution

The average ouput voltage is always greater than or equal to zero. It can never be less than zero, because freewheeling action takes place in diodes in single phase semi converters.

Current will be always positive, it can not flow in reverse direction.
