Abstract

A device for converting direct voltage into a three phase alternating voltage having a two level converter connected to a direct voltage network and to an alternating voltage network. A control apparatus for performing pulse width modulation determines the pulse width modulation pattern for each phase by comparing a triangular wave for each phase with a reference alternating voltage. The triangular wave is inverted an even number of times during a fundamental oscillation of the reference alternating voltage and the time position of the inversions of each triangular wave is always such that two triangular waves are half a period displaced with respect to the third.
