1 Answer
| written 6.5 years ago by |
| Sr. No. | Parameter | Natural Commutation | Force Commutation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Source | AC | DC |
| 2 | External commutating components | Not Required | Required |
| 3 | Power dissipation | Less as no power loss takes place in the commutating components | More as some power loss takes place in the commutating components |
| 4 | Cost of commutation circuit | No additional cost for commutation | Commutation circuits are costly |
| 5 | Nature of Current to switch of SCR | current naturally reduces to zero | Current is forced to zero |
| 6 | Cost | Less Cost | More Cost |
