The local hot spot formation in the cross-section of the SCR is avoided by a) reducing the junction temperature b) applying gate current nearer to the maximum gate current c) using only R loads d) proper mounting of the SCR on heat sink

Explanation: Applying the higher gate current spreads the ions quickly and avoids
hotspot formation.
