Each of the four gate units (16-19) comprises a voltage measurement unit (24-27) adapted to take a continuous voltage measurement across the corresponding power electronic valve, and each of the four gate units (16-19) is adapted to transmit its continuous voltage measurement. The control unit (28) is adapted to receive from each of the four gate units (16-19) its continuous voltage measurement and to determine the cell capacitor voltage value (U dc) based on at least one of these voltage measurements.
