Abstract

See full text

A power distribution system has a power converter with a plurality of semiconductor switching devices per phase, a PWM controller, and a current limitation controller. The current limitation controller is adapted, at least when a short-circuit fault is detected, to calculate the difference between a measured current for each phase and a reference current for the corresponding phase. If the calculated difference is located outside a predetermined current range centred about the reference current for the corresponding phase, the current limitation controller will allow the semiconductor switching devices of the corresponding phase to be turned on and off by the PWM controller. Otherwise, if the calculated difference is located inside the predetermined current range, the current limitation controller will control the semiconductor switching devices for the corresponding phase to be turned off irrespective of the PWM control strategy applied by the PWM controller.
