Yes, if the transformer output is center-tapped; otherwise, no, a bridge rectifier requires four diodes, or six for three phase power. More technically correct, what we are talking about is a full-wave rectifier. A bridge rectifier is properly always four or six diodes.
By this process all errors to be removed and electricity distribution becomes storng. Rectifier always react all abstraction which law given be Ohms.
It is not really necessary for 2 diodes of full wave rectifier to be identical. However, it must be understood that the two diodes will have the same forward current, and the same reverse voltage, applied to them, so their ratings should be comparable.
A: Then the phase that the diode is remove will not work or Rather get an output
there is no need of bulky centre tap in a bridge rectifier. TUF(transformer utilisation factor) is considerably high. output is not grounded. diodes of a bridge rectifier are readily available in market. *the PIV(peak inverse voltage) for diodes in a bridge rectifier are only halfof that for a centre tapped full wave rectifier,which is of great advantage.
Depends on the number of phases.single phase uses 4 diodesthree phase uses 6 diodes

We couldn't agree more.
The choice of single or three phase depends on the available supply. But a three-phase full wave rectifier provides 6 pulses of DC per cycle, while a single-phase full-wave rectifier provides only two. That makes the output DC easier to smooth.
simplified circuit for three phase cycloconveretr?
Bridge Rectifier DiodesIn a "bridge" rectifier there is 4 diodes In a "full wave" there are 2 diodes.In a "half wave" rectifier there is 1 diode.
It depends on whether or not it is a half wave or full wave rectifier. For a single phase 60 Hz rectifier, a half wave rectifier will be 60 Hz while a full wave rectifier will be 120 Hz. A three phase full wave rectifier will be 360 Hz.
Both the bridge rectifier and the full-wave rectifier achieve the same thing. They rectify the AC input on both opposing phases so as to minimize ripple time and voltage. The difference is that a bridge rectifier consists of four diodes arranged in a bridge, so the input needs to only be single phase AC, while a full wave rectifier consists of two diodes, but needs a split phase AC source, such as provided by a center tapped transformer winding. Also, the bridge rectifier presents two junction drops in the output, because there are always two diodes in series, while the full-wave rectifier presents only one junction drop in the output, because there is only one. It is a trade-off.
They both have the same current.

The best way is to use 6 diodes in a full-wave rectifier. Each diode has one end connected to one of the phase wires, and they are connected so that the positive ends of three of the diodes go to the + terminal and the negative ends go to the - terminal of the DC. This is the way a car alternators are wired up to the battery.
