English: Waveforms for a typical 3-phase half-wave and full-wave rectifiers. The top plot shows the individual three phase signals, the middle plot shows the half-wave rectifier output in solid curve and the bottom plot shows the full-wave rectifier output in solid curve. The 'T' in time is the time period of individual signals and ${\displaystyle \scriptstyle V_{\mathrm {peak} }}$ is the amplitude of each of the three input signals.
