l The neutral of the supply is not


connected to the neutral of the load.
l The firing sequance of thyristors is T1 ,
T2 , T 3 , T 4 , T 5 , T 6 .
l The gate-control circuit must be capable
of triggering at the same instant two
thyristor, one in each of two phases.
l These pulses are applied at intervals of
60° to various thyristors in a sequence
the same as that of the supply voltage.

l The current flow to the load is controlled by the thyristors T1, T3 and T5 and the
thyristors T2, T4 and T6 provide the return current path.

l At any interval, either three SCRs or two SCRs, or no SCRs may be ON (conduct)

l If three SCRs conduct, a normal three-phase operation occurs and the output (load)
phase voltage (van) is the same as the input (supply) phase voltage (v AN)

l If two SCRs conduct, the current flows only through two lines and the third line is
open-circuited, and the output phase voltage (v an)

l If no SCRs conduct, the output phase voltage becomes zero.
