An electric energy converter comprises N transformers each including a primary winding and a secondary winding, a primary circuit connected to two input terminals on which the primary windings of the transformers are connected, a secondary circuit connected to two output terminals on which the secondary windings of the transformers are connected. Each primary and secondary circuit includes a set of switching devices connected to N primary windings and N secondary windings, where the converter further comprises a controller configured to control the switching devices of at least one of the primary or secondary circuits, the switching devices being connected to associate the N primary or secondary windings in a series and/or parallel arrangement by using the controller.
