A power conversion apparatus including a first direct current conversion module, a second direct current conversion module, and a control module. The control module is configured to: in response to an output voltage of the first photovoltaic string being greater than an output voltage of the second photovoltaic string and a comparison value between the two output voltages being greater than a first threshold: control a switching transistor in the first direct current conversion module to be turned on or off to decrease the output voltage of the first photovoltaic string and control a switching transistor in the second direct current conversion module to be turned on or off to increase the output voltage of the second photovoltaic string, so that a comparison value between the output voltage of the second photovoltaic string and a bus voltage of the direct current bus is less than a second threshold.

Power conversion apparatus and control method

A photovoltaic system, an inverter, and a direct current electric arc detection method. The system includes an inverter, a controller, and at least two converters. When detecting an electric arc, the controller controls an input current of the inverter to decrease to extinguish the arc. After the arc is extinguished, the controller controls an output voltage of at least one photovoltaic string to decrease to a first preset voltage, where the first preset voltage is less than an input voltage of the inverter when the electric arc is detected, or controls a maximum value of an output current of the at least one photovoltaic string to be a second preset current, where the second preset current is less than the input current of the inverter when the electric arc is detected. In the foregoing two recovery manners, no electric arc recurs.
