Abstract
A wind turbine comprising a converter connected to a generator, which converter supplies at least some of the energy generated by the electrical generator into an electrical grid, sensors for interference in the electrical grid and a controller module for controlling the converter and/or the wind turbine. The controller module comprises a grid interference module which, in the case of detected interference in the electrical grid, counteracts the interference. The controller module comprises an override module which, in the case of a detected interference in the grid, is provided in order to deactivate the grid interference module at least in part. This improves the behavior in interference situations in that the controller module detects, over the course of the interference, that at least parts of the inherent grid stabilization functions do not counteract the interference and, in this specific situation, it deactivates the respective harmful grid stabilization functions.
