    Question

    For an SCR. commutation is the term used to describe _____.

    A.

    Controlling angle

    B.

    Latching state

    C.

    Switching on

    D.

    Switching off

    Correct option is D


    Commutation in an SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) refers to the process of switching off the SCR by reducing the anode current below the holding current level. This is necessary because an SCR, once turned on, remains in the conducting state until the current through it is interrupted or reduced to a very low value.
