What is used to protect a thyristor from high di / dt conditions?

Calculate the maximum voltage that can be safely blocked by the string shown in figure, if maximum allowable leakage current is 2 mA?

During which time maximum conduction spreading take place in the thyristor during turn ON?

A thyristor string is made of a no. of SCR connected in series and parallel. The string have volume and current of 11 KV and 4 KA. The voltage and current rating of available SCRs are 1800 V and 1000 A. For a string efficiency of 90 % let the number of SCRs in series and parallel are a and b respectively. Then the value of a and b will be
