If a general question asks how many diodes are used in a full wave rectifier _without specifying wether it is a center tapped or a bridge rectifier ..! What answer should we select 2 or 4?

same confusion here
Noor · 2026-08-28T08:42:22.413Z

if it is asked in general then we will go for 4 bcz bridge rectifier is the most common one used and efficient then center tapped . so in general means that which one is the most common one so 4 is the right answer

If a general question does not specify the type, you should assume it refers to a bridge rectifier and select 4 diodes, because the bridge configuration is the modern industry standard.: You only use 2 diodes if the question specifically mentions a center-tapped transformer full-wave rectifier

You should select 4 as your primary answer
