Abstract
A method and a corresponding appliance for measuring the output current of a frequency converter, the frequency converter including a network bridge that can be connected to an AC network, a controllable three-phase load bridge that can be connected to an AC load, and a DC intermediate circuit between them, the DC intermediate circuit including a filter capacitor that includes controllable semiconductor switches in each phase and that are controlled by pulse-width modulation, and in which the currents of the output phases are determined based on measured samples of the current of the filter capacitor of the DC intermediate circuit.
