Definition extinction angle in thyristor power electronics

Answer 1

$\large\purple{\boxed{\mathcal{Hello mate}}}$

➡In power electronics extinction angle is one where thyristor gets switched off in spite of being reverse biased. The load is fed for the voltage source through the thyristor. ... It remains in the ON state till the load current tries to go to a negative value. This instant is defined as the angle extinction.
