if you exceed the max forward current the depletion region will become too small and will no longer allow any voltage through. it will also cause the diode to begin breaking down and will result in the death of the component.

What is a full load current in single phase transformer?
It is the rated maximum current that can be taken from the transformer. This is equal to the VA rating divided by the output voltage. So a 6 kVA 240 v transformer would have a maximum current rating of 6000/240 or 25 amps.
What is the maximum current rating of thyristor?

What is maximum power rating?
Maximum power rating describes the maximum power at which a device can operate without reaching an excessive temperature. For example, in the case of a resistor, if its maximum power rating is exceeded, then it may burn out.
How many amps is 80VA?
Divide VA rating with the Voltage and get Amp rating. So say you have a transformer that delivers 26V, 80VA, that means a maximum current of 80/26=3.07A for a resistive load.
What size maximum level of primary-only overcurrent protection is required for a 600-volt transformer with a primary current rating of 54 amperes?
100
What is Meaning of diode rating?
There are two diode ratings. One is the forward current rating, and the other is the reverse breakdown voltage rating. The forward current rating is the maximum current that the diode can conduct before failing, and the reverse breakdown voltage rating is the maximum reverse voltage that can be applied before failing. Of course, the reverse voltage rating has a different meaning in a zener diode, but this answer applies to ordinary diodes.
What is maximum continues current rating of motor?
200A
What are primary parameters of power transformers?
Input and output voltages, maximum current rating, often expressed in VA or kVA as the voltage rating times the current rating. Operating frequency is the next important parameter because if the frequency is lower, the voltage must be reduced in proportion.
What is the maximum current that can flow through a fuse?
A current rating of a fuse is designed to open a circuit at a specific current flow. This rating is imprinted on the fuse and lets you know what the maximum amount of current the fuse is designed to open at. A fuse is in the circuit to protect the conductor that the current flows through. Never over fuse a conductor's current carrying capacity.
What is the maximum current ratings for different electrical equipments?
Current depends on the Wattage and the voltage rating of the device.
WHAT IS rectifiers 1N4007?
The 1N4007 is a diode with forward current rating of 1 ampere, and a reverse voltage rating of 1,000 volts.
How long for a cable to heat up at maximum current rating?
It depends on the surround material, temperature, type of cable, and what you mean by "maximum current rating". Typically a maximum load current rating will be specified, such as 15A; this means you can push 15A through that cable nonstop without damaging it (it won't overheat). You might have a short time rating as well, such as a 4 hour rating, where the cable can handle runing 22A for 4 hours if the surrounding temperature is kept to some value, though this may slightly degrade the insulation. There's also a fusing current rating for many cables. At this current, the cable will eventually melt (like a fuse).
What is a full load current in single phase transformer?
It is the rated maximum current that can be taken from the transformer. This is equal to the VA rating divided by the output voltage. So a 6 kVA 240 v transformer would have a maximum current rating of 6000/240 or 25 amps.
What is the maximum current that can flow through a 5mm LED?
There are numerous 5mm LED manufacturors and they can have different specs. Consult the specification sheet for the component in question.The 500TSW4DF Super Bright White 5mm LED has a max forward current rating of 30mA on its spec sheet.The RL5-R8030 - Super-Red LED has a rating of 20mA

IN5408 diode what does it do?
The IN5408 diode is an ordinary silicon diode. It has a 3 amp forward current rating, and a 1000 volt peak reverse voltage rating.
Why the transformer rating in kva why not in kw?
A transformer has separate ratings for maximum voltage and maximum current. Both limits must be observed. The maximum voltage is set by the magnetic flux density in the core, while the current limit is set by the size of the wire used in the primary and secondary windings. Multiplying the two together gives the VA or kVA rating.
