← ScienceWhich mechanism precipitates voltage spiking following inverter shutdown if DC-link capacitance lags load demand?
A)Inductive flyback voltage generation✓
B)Capacitive charge carrier avalanche
C)Transmission-line wave interference
D)Piezoelectric reverse current effect
💡 Explanation
Inductive flyback induces voltage because current flow collapses in the inductor. With insufficient capacitance to absorb the reverse energy, voltage increases uncontrollably therefore causing spiking, rather than dissipation within the capacitor through charge carrier breakdown.
