Peak Inverse Voltage, the maximum reverse bias (inverse) voltage that can be applied to the diode without damaging or destroying it. The work "peak" is used to remind you that when using the diode to rectify AC (or arbitrary waveforms) you must use the peak voltage, not the RMS voltage.
peak inverse voltage... piv of semiconductor is impoetant bcz we need to know after a peak voltage the diode get breakdown or damaged... so we need to know the peak voltage. piv is a point which withstands the maximum reverse biased voltage. after which the diode get damaged.
It's approximately the inverse of the voltage- or turns-ratio:
The ratio of output windings to input windings determines the ratio of output voltage to input voltage. The ratio of current is the inverse.
Rated insulation voltage is the maximum voltage that can be applied to the insulation of an electrical device without causing a breakdown or failure. It is a measure of the insulation's ability to withstand high voltage without impacting its performance or safety. The rated insulation voltage is typically specified by the manufacturer and is an important parameter to consider when designing or selecting electrical equipment.
What are the Importance of of peak inverse voltage in rectifier
You mean peak inverse voltage.It is the maximum voltage (peak) the diode can be reversed biased (inverse) by without being destroyed.
Peak inverse voltage of a device like diode gives the maximum value of voltage that it can withstand without being damaged when it is reverse biased.
twice of input voltage
Total Harmonic Distortion is an important phenomenon while selecting a UPS. AC Harmonic content (THD-Voltage) shall be <= 3% for linear load and <=5% for non linear load.

2x the peak supply voltage!
Two names for practically the same condition. Peak inverse is name whereby the maximum voltage can be sustained. Breakdown is actually the point where a reverse voltage is reached and reverse breakdown has occurred

The Peak inverse voltage (PIV) equals the peak value of the input voltage, and the diode must be capable of withstanding this amount of repetition reverse voltage. For the diode in figure, the maximum value of reverse voltage, designated as PIV, occurs at peak of each positive alternation of the input voltage when the diode is forward biased.Peak Inverse Voltage at Positive Half CycleThe Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV) occurs at the peak of each half-cycle of the input voltage when the diode is forward biased . In this circuit, the PIV occurs at the peak of each positive half cycle.

The ratio of output windings to input windings determines the ratio of output voltage to input voltage. The ratio of current is the inverse.
