The term "Forced commutation" is used when a thyristor is turned off using external components.
If a thyristor is used in a DC circuit, when first turned on, it will stay on until the current goes to zero. To turn off the thyristor it is possible to use a Forced commutation circuit. The circuit creates a reverse voltage over the thyristor (and a small reverse current) for a short time, but long enough to turn off the thyristor.
A simple circuit consist of a precharged capacitor and a switch (e.g. another thyristor) parallel to the thyristor. When the switch is closed, the current is supplied by the capacitor for a short while. This cause a reversed voltage over the thyristor, and the thyristor is turned off.

What are the types of commutation?
Two types of commutation process 1) Natural commutation 2) Forced commutation
What is load commutation?
it is a type of forced commutation technique of thyristor
What is the difference between current and voltage commutation?
Voltage commutation: This is possible in ac circuits...The thyristor gets turned off by reverse bias (negative half cycle) voltage applied across it. This is also called line commutation. Current Commutation: This is possible in dc circuits ...This type of commutation makes use of auxiliary circuit which contains inductor,capacitor,diode and even a thyristor(auxiliary). This is called Forced commutation.
How commutation can be improve?
Generally there are two methods of improving Commutation :- 1.Resistance Commutation 2.Emf or Voltage Commutation The Commutation can also be improve by using interpoles and compensating windings.
What are the difference between choppers and inverters?
chopper transforms ac to dc (dc chopper) while all inverter transform dc to ac commutation used in chopper: forced,load commutation used in inverter:forced(180 vsi),natural or line(120 vsi)
What is commutation of thyristor?
the process of turning off of a thyrisror is known as commutation
What are the two general types of commutation?
The two general types of commutation are commutation by substitution and commutation by remission. Commutation by substitution involves replacing a harsher penalty with a lesser one, such as changing a death sentence to life imprisonment. Commutation by remission refers to the reduction of the duration of a sentence, leading to an earlier release from incarceration. Both types aim to provide a form of clemency and reflect the authority's discretion in the justice system.
Natural commutation is used in which kind of circuit?

What are the problems of commutation in a DC generator?
1.resistance commutation 2.e.m.f commutation
What is a line commutation?
it is the natural commutation ...by making open circuit or short circuit on the thyristor to make it turn off.
