Abstract
Provided is a method for feeding electrical power into an electrical supply network having a network voltage using a wind turbine having an inverter, which has a DC voltage intermediate circuit having an intermediate circuit voltage and a chopper circuit connected to the intermediate circuit for discharging electrical energy from the intermediate circuit. The method includes feeding electrical power into the network in a normal operation if no network fault has been detected, detecting a fault if the network voltage falls below an undervoltage value, interrupting or reducing the feed if the fault has been detected, and ending the interruption or reduction if the end of a network fault is detected. During the fault and/or from the end of the fault, the fed-in power is limited to a limit, and, to limit the power, the intermediate circuit voltage is limited using the chopper circuit depending upon the limit.
