Abstract:
A method performed by a control unit for handling phases in which multiple converters operate in an at least partly electrically driven vehicle. The converters are parallel power electric converters each comprised in a respective EMD. The converters are connected to a power supply via a DC supply link. At least one of the converters is adapted to communicate with at least one of the remaining of the multiple converters via a communication interface. The control unit detects that a first converter operates in a first phase. The control unit initiates at least one of the remaining converters to operate phase shifted compared to the first converter.
