I was trying to build an LTspice model for three phase uncontrolled rectifier.

The problem that i am facing at the time of simulation is with grounding. The ground of three phase source should be separated from the bridge. I was trying to use transformer to separate the ground but it is giving faulty wave shape. My point is how to insulate the rectifier bridge from the ground of source. Help in this issue will be much appreciated.

I don't quite understand your problem. :confused:

Ltspice requires only one ground point and you can put that wherever you want.
The simulation circuit that I have posted, the value of voltage and current is not the same as it shows in the calculation. Again main purpose of my query is to find a way to isolate the three phase supply from the bridge. This isolation problem is the main challenge to make it functional by far that i have found.

Hi,

Please elaborate further the word isolate the 3 phase supply from the bridge.
Its normal already providing ac input to the bridge as per your schematic.

How are they different?
What calculation?
Post your .asc simulation file.

I see no reason for having this isolation.
I believe you are chasing a non-existent problem unless you can better explain why it is needed.

You can 'isolate' the bridge from ground by putting a 100Meg resistor between the two. That will keep Spice happy.
Where should I put this resistor? Can you please specify? In the common ground of all sources or in between the ground and bridge?
