12 pulse rectifier is made of two 6 pulse rectifiers in
which 1 rect s connected in star n oder in delta.The input
side is connected in parallel and the o/p side in series

Answer / venu

Is it possible to obtain more pulses than twice the number
of phases in a rectifier circuit? The answer to this
question is yes: especially in polyphase circuits. Through
the creative use of transformers, sets of full-wave
rectifiers may be paralleled in such a way that more than
six pulses of DC are produced for three phases of AC. A 30o
phase shift is introduced from primary to secondary of a
three-phase transformer when the winding configurations are
not of the same type. In other words, a transformer
connected either Y-Δ or Δ-Y will exhibit this 30o phase
shift, while a transformer connected Y-Y or Δ-Δ will not.
This phenomenon may be exploited by having one transformer
connected Y-Y feed a bridge rectifier, and have another
transformer connected Y-Δ feed a second bridge rectifier,
then parallel the DC outputs of both rectifiers. (Figure
below) Since the ripple voltage waveforms of the two
rectifiers' outputs are phase-shifted 30o from one another,
their superposition results in less ripple than either
rectifier output considered separately: 12 pulses per 360o
instead of just six:

Answer / bharadwaj.gajula

12 pulse rectifier can be formed by using two six pulse converters (i.e 3-phase converters )connecting in series

it can be made using 2 rectifier bridges connected in
parallel to three phase transformer winding

Answer / venu

sorry in above for ∆ it is taken as &#916

Answer / venu

again sorry delta it is taking different numbers .it is
nothing but delta

If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
