Calculate the PIV for the Mid-point configuration of Full-wave rectifier if the peak value of the supply voltage is 311.(a) 622 V(b) 620 V(c) 624 V(d) 626 VI have been asked this question in an internship interview.This intriguing question originated from Solid State Controlled Drives topic in chapter Introduction to Solid State Controlled Drives of Electric Drives

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) 622 V

Explanation: The peak INVERSE VOLTAGE for the Mid-point configuration of Full wave rectifier is 2Vm=2×311=622 V. The peak inverse is the MAXIMUM NEGATIVE voltage ACROSS the thyristor.
