Abstract
A method for voltage balancing of series connected capacitors, wherein a voltage in an intermediate circuit of an electric circuit can be easily and safely balanced between a plurality of series connected capacitors and thus these components are operated safely in terms of their voltage strength. This problem is solved in that the voltage balancing is accomplished in that, in a first step of the method, an at least partial discharging of a first or a second capacitor occurs across a first or second winding of a transformer, while thanks to the action of the transformer a current is induced in a second step of the method in the second or first winding which charges the second or first capacitor as a charging current.
