02․ An SCR has half cycle surge current rating of 3000 A for 50 Hz supply. One cycle surge Stability Criterion

current will be » System of Electrical

1500 A. Wiring

6000 A.

2121.32 A.

4242.64 A.

Hints

03․ An SCR is considered to be a semi controlled device because

it can be turned OFF but not ON with a gate pulse.

it conducts only during one half cycle of an alternating current wave.

it can be turned ON but not OFF with a gate pulse.

it can be turned ON only during one half cycle of an AC.

Hints

04․ A single phase one pulse controlled circuit has a resistance R and counter emf E load 400
sin(314 t) as the source voltage. For a load counter emf of 200 V, the range of firing angle
control is
30° to 150°.

30° to 180°.

60° to 120°.

60° to 180°.

Hints

05․ A single phase full bridge inverter can operated in load commutation mode in case load
consist of
 RL.

RLC underdamped.

RLC overdamped.

RLC critically damped.

Hints

In this case reading current will flow in circuit and it will became zero so thyristor will
be load commutated .

06․ A step up chopper has input voltage 110 V and output voltage 150 V. The value of duty
cycle is
0.32.

0.67.

0.45.

0.27.

Hints

07․ Which statement is true for latching current ?

It is related to turn off process of the device.

It is related to conduction process of device.

It is related to turn on process of the device.

Both C and D.

Hints

08․ If holding current of a thyristor is 2 mA then latching current should be

0.01 A.

0.002 A.

0.009 A.

0.004 A.

Hints

Generally latching current is 2 or 3 times of holding current.

09․ In reverse blocking mode of a thyristor

junction J2 is in reverse bias and J1, J3 is in forward bias.

junction J3 is in forward bias and J1, J2 in reverse bias.

junction J1, J3 is in reverse bias and J2 is in forward bias.

junction J1 and J2 is in forward bias and J3 is in reverse bias.

Hints

In reverse blocking mode J1 and J2 is in reverse bias and J2 is in forward bias.

10․ In forward blocking mode of a thyristor

 junction J2 is in reverse bias and J1, J3 is in forward bias.

junction J3 is in forward bias and J1, J2 is in reverse bias.

Junction J1, J3 is in reverse bias and J2 is in forward bias.

Junction J1 and J2 is in forward bias and J3 is in reverse bias.

Hints

In forward blocking mode junction J2 acts in reverse bias whereas J1 and J3 act in forward
bias.
