Questions and Answers

What describes a three-phase fully controlled rectifier with R load?

  • Provides zero output voltage under all load conditions.
  • Can convert AC to DC using silicon-controlled rectifiers. (correct)
  • Only allows current flow during positive half cycles.
  • Requires additional diodes for full-wave operation.
