To perform a SCR as a halfwave rectifier first of connect all the component as shown in the figure. Use current probe for current waveform. Use BT150 or BT 151 scr , which are mostly used in the market. 

                Generally all the user faced the problem during scr operation is how to set firing angle. Here I have applied a alternative wave to set firing angle.

How to set firing angle ?

First of all find source frequency? here it is 60 Hz.
so total time period for one cycle is 1/60=0.016666 sec
and total degree for one cycle is 360 degree

so 360 degree=0.01666 sec

Now If you want to set 30 degree then 360/12=30 degree same thing 0.016666/12=0.0013888888




For 60 degree divide by 60 
time delay =0.0166666/60 = 0.002777

As you can see the waveform for firing angle =60 degree




As you can see the waveform for firing angle =30 degree

Any query please post your question.
If this one is useful then please give some complement.
