When thyristor rectifiers are used for electrical drives, reactive power is produced with fundamental and harmonic frequencies. Especially in single-phase traction lines, with their low short-circuit power, a technical solution of this problem, applicable mainly to thyristor-driven rail cars and locomotives, had to be found. In this paper, the sector-control system of a self-commutated unsymmetrical bridge is described.
