Abstract: Voltage source converter based on a chain-link cell topology, said converter comprising one or more phases (L1, L2, L3), each of said phases comprising one or more series- connected chain- link cell modules connected to each other, an output voltage of said voltage source converter is controlled by control signals applied to said cell modules. In case of failure of a chain- link cell module that module is controlled, by said control signals, such that zero output voltage is provided at its output voltage AC terminal.

Abstract: An arrangement to determine a cell capacitor voltage value (U dc) of a cell (10") of a multi-cell power converter comprises the cell (10") and a control unit (28). The cell (10") itself comprises four power electronic valves (1-4) interconnected as a full-bridge converter having a first and a second phase leg, where each phase leg comprises a series-connection of two (1, 3; 2, 4) of the four power electronic valves and where the connection point (6; 7) between the two power electronic valves of each phase leg is externally connectable, a cell capacitor (5) being connected in parallel to the first and the second phase legs, and four gate units (16-19), each being connected to a corresponding one of the power electronic valves (1-4) as well as to the control unit (28). 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.

Abstract: An arrangement for exchanging power, in shunt connection, with a three-phase electric power network (2) comprises on one hand for each said phase a reactive impedance element (31, 41, 51) and a Voltage Source Converter (32, 42, 52) connected in series with said element, and on the other a control unit (25) configured to control semiconductor devices of turn-off type of said converter for generating a voltage with a fundamental frequency being equal to the fundamental frequency of the voltage of the respective said phase and by that control a flow of reactive power between said arrangement and the respective phase of said electric power network. Each Voltage Sou rce Converter comprises a series connection of switching cells in the form of so-called H-bridges comprisi ng two switch ing elements connected in parallel and each having at least two semiconductor assemblies connected in series. Each switching cell further comprises at least one energy storing capacitor connected in parallel with said switching elements.
