Dynamic Braking

(A) Control circuit of the Dynamic Braking.

 (B) Power circuit of the Dynamic Braking.

  

                (a) An actual and schematic diagram of a diode.

                (b) A half wave rectifier where the diode is conducting

                (c) A half wave rectifier where the diode is not conducting.

(d) A full wave bridge rectifier using 4 diodes.

(A) Rotor R will still rotate even if the AC voltage at lines L1 and L2 is removed.

 (B) Rotor R come to stop immediately if the AC voltage at lines L1 and L2 is substituted by a DC voltage.
