[GreenKeys] Rectifier AC amp draw question...

[E.]

This is probably a silly question by my audio engineer wife was also having trouble answering it ;o …

…anywho - question:

Let’s say I have a rectifier that draws 3 amps on the AC side and 1 amp on the DC side… according to the plate.  If I put a big honkin’ resistor on the DC side - for a loop current.  Will that limit the DC draw to below 3 amps on the AC side, or will the AC side remain at 3 amps???

Thanks much in advance for the answer ^^ !!!
