Abstract
Abstract In order to permit an improved operational performance of DC transmission, a method is provided which has an associated control arrangement and control device (11a, 11b) and in which, starting from a common working point (A) with predetermined current and voltage values (UA, IA) the respective control devices (11a, 11b) of converters (5a, 5b) respectively assigned to three-phase systems (3a, 3b) are respectively fed system deviations (ΔAa, ΔAb) relative to the working point (A). The respective controlled variable is employed in order to reach the working point (A), minimizing the respective system deviation (ΔAa, ΔAb). The control method and the associated devices preferably operate according to the principle of vectorial control.
