4.1 DC DRIVES
\
DC Drives use controlled rectifiers to obtain variable DC
voltage. The controlled rectifier senses the zero crossing of
line voltages to control the firing angle of the thyristors.
When the input voltage waveform has multiple zero
crossing due to voltage spikes or sudden dips, this sensing
would be erratic and the equipment misbehaves. Normally,
all DC Drives equipment are designed to trip on under
voltage over voltage and abnormal frequency conditions. In
a regenerative drive which uses four quadrant converter, if
the equipment is regenerating and an under voltage
condition occurs, there would be commutation failure
resulting in fuse failure and shut down of the equipment.
Sane is the case with brown out sand black outs
