Abstract:
A wind turbine is provided. The wind turbine includes at least one generator adapted to generate electric power and a plurality of electrical converter units adapted to convert electric power generated by the generator and electrically connectable or connected to the generator and to a utility grid. The generator includes a stator being segmented in stator segments. Each stator segment includes a plurality of stator windings. The stator windings of the respective stator segments are divided into at least a first and a second group of stator windings with each group including at least one stator winding. Several or all first groups of stator windings are electrically connected to a first electrical converter unit and several or all second groups of stator windings are electrically connected to a second electrical converter unit.
