Abstract
A control circuit for a power conversion apparatus, e.g., inverter and cycloconverter, which produces sinusoidal alternating current (AC) power through multiple switching operations of switching devices within a cycle and supplies the power to a load. The control circuit includes a current control minor loop for controlling the instantaneous value of the output current of the power conversion apparatus in compliance with a current reference value which is determined as the sum of the load current component determined basing on the detected value of load current, and the modification current component produced by a voltage controller to current error of output line voltage of said power conversion apparatus with respect of a sinusoidal voltage reference, whereby the output voltage of the power conversion apparatus is controlled accurately to have less distortion against harmonics of the load.
