Abstract
For connecting the d-c terminals of a voltage-source inverter to a direct current (d-c) power source, a d-c link capacitor is connected directly between the d-c terminals, a line capacitor is connected in parallel with the d-c link capacitor, and a series inductor is connected between the line capacitor and the source. A dynamic brake resistor and an electric power chopper are connected in series with one another across the line capacitor. Between the two capacitors, no inductance is provided but a resistor is inserted in the braking current path during electrical braking operation of the inverter.
