Answer / shahulsnfa
diode conducts only in forward bias.the diode will break
down when it is revrse biased. but zener will conduct in
reverse bias also. break down will occur after some voltage
level which is more compare to diode

diode converts ac to dc onely but zener diode convets ac to
dc and voltage also controlled its voltage controle range
is 15voltes to 200voltes
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 13 Yes | 4 No |
Answer / sunil guru
yes right
simple diode conducts in forward bias only....
whereas zener diode has the property to conduct beyond reverse bias(reverse break down voltage)
in practical it is used to create a reference voltage for comparison with with fundamental circuit voltage

Sir, My doubt on cable sizing calculation, Load:74 KW calculated cable 1 run 50mm2. Now client asking us to reduce cable size by increasing runs. Sir, My question now when my mind strikes with 2 options 1) Divide load 74/2 = 36 and calculate cable for 36+36 making it 2 runs or 2) Simply i can divide 50mm2 /2 ie. 2 runs of 25mm2 Please suggest me sir
