Abstract

Electric drive devices having at least one power electronics module including at least one voltage circuit having power electronics components such as a converter, transformer, frequency inverter, power capacitor, circuit breaker and the like, and at least one fuse for interrupting the voltage circuit in the event of excess currents and/or voltages. The invention also relates to a wind turbine and similar large industrial electrical systems having such a drive device. The device can comprise at least one pyrotechnic fuse with a propellant charge for the irreversible interruption of the voltage circuit, wherein the pyrotechnic fuse is arranged in the voltage circuit of the power electronics module or immediately adjacent to at least one power electronics component such as a converter, frequency inverter, transformer, power capacitor or circuit breaker.
