  • Abstract
    D-C POWER is required in many industrial, mining, and railway applications. Most of the d-c power for these applications is provided by mercury-arc rectifiers. A relatively small percentage of d-c power is provided by rotary converters and motor-generator sets. Direct voltages ranging between 250 and 3,000 volts are used for these applications.
