5. As a result, IGBTs can be used to make " self-commutated converters ".
6. With such converters, the harmonic spectrum is generally shifted to higher frequencies than with line-commutated converters.
7. Being self-commutated, the converter no longer relies on synchronous machines in the AC system for its operation.
8. SCRs do not turn off or " commutate " automatically when the gate control signal is shut off.
9. The basic building-block of a line-commutated HVDC converter is the " six-pulse bridge ".
