Peak reverse voltage:
The peak reverse blocking voltage of each thyristor in a 1ϕ full bridge rectifier is given by:
PIV = Vm
where, Vm = Maximum value of input voltage
Calculation:
Given, Vm = 100 V
PIV = 100
PIV = 100 V
Additional Information Peak reverse voltage for center-tapped rectifier:
The peak reverse blocking voltage of each thyristor in a 1ϕ full center-tapped rectifier is given by:
PIV = 2Vm
