Mid-Point Converters Connection:

•In a Single Phase Full Wave Controlled


Rectifier circuit with mid­point configuration
two thyristors and a single phase transformer
with centre-tapped secondary windings are
used.
With Resistive Load:
• When terminal A shown in the circuit is
positive w.r.t. mid­point N of the transformer
secondary, point B will have negative polarity
w.r.t. mid-point
• Under this condition the thyristor
TH1 conducts when it is fired at an angle α.
• During the negative half cycle of ac supply, the
terminal B of the transformer secondary is
positive w.r.t. to mid-point N.
• Thyristor TH2 gets turned on when it is gated.
The voltage and current relations are
derived as follows.
The output dc voltage across the resistive load is
given by
Average load current is given by

The expression for rms value of load voltage


for a given firing angle α is
• RMS value of load current is given by
