A class B chopper drive is used for

  • A.supplying a machine whose field must be reversed frequently
  • B.regenerative braking only
  • C.motoring only, in one direction of rotation of the machine
  • D.four-quadrant operation of a reversing drive

Answer: B

Correct answer: regenerative braking only

A class B chopper is the mirror image of class A: its switch and diode are arranged so that current flows from the machine back to the supply, giving negative current at positive voltage. It can therefore brake regeneratively but cannot motor. Classes A and B are combined as class C to give two quadrants, and two class C units make the class E four-quadrant chopper.
