Abstract
A power conversion circuitry configured to detect an electrical fault, and methods of detecting an electrical fault in power conversion circuitry, the power conversion circuitry including: switching circuitry configured to control a current flowing along a current path between first and second nodes of the power conversion circuitry; a current sensor connected to the current path, the current sensor configured to measure a rate of change of the current flowing along the current path; and control circuitry connected to the current sensor and the switching circuitry, the control circuitry configured to: detect an electrical fault if a rate of change of the current measured by the current sensor exceeds a fault threshold, and configure the switching circuitry to adjust current flow in the power conversion circuitry when an electrical fault is detected.
