Why does inductor is connected to dc supply? or what is the
role of an inductor when connected to DC source?

Answer Posted / prabhu

You almost got the answer. In DC since frequency is zero the
current flow freely. But the main purpose of using
inductance is to restrict the harmonics. In case of
harmonics there is a frequency element playing a role. since
inductive reactance = 2(pi)fL The inductor offers resistance
to this harmonics and thus reduces the harmonics.
