Abstract
A switching arrangement includes a switching unit, which is designed to couple at least one phase of an electric machine of a vehicle in different configurations to a DC onboard power voltage of the vehicle in order to generate an AC phase voltage for the phase of the electric machine. In addition, the switching arrangement has a coil and circuit breakers, wherein the circuit breakers are designed to couple the switching unit via the coil to a DC charging voltage or to decouple same from the charging voltage. The switching arrangement also has a controller which is designed to operate the switching arrangement in a converter mode or in a power inverter mode.
