A single phase fully controlled bridge rectifier is fed by a source having inductance. The output voltage during overlap period is

Vm
0.5 Vm
zero
0.5 Vm - voltage drop across inductance

Correct Answer: zero

Explanation:

During the period of overlap all the four thyristors conduct and load is effectively short-circuited. Output voltage is zero.
