The invention relates to an alternating current side wiring structure of a direct current transmission system of a power supply converter and a control method of the alternating current side wiring structure. The wiring structure comprises an upper stage circuit breaker CB1, an access circuit breaker CB2, a transformer T, a start resistor R and an alternating current circuit breaker CB3, wherein an alternating current incoming line of a converter station is led to a power supply from the upper stage circuit breaker CB1, the upper stage circuit breaker CB1 is connected with the transformer T through the access circuit breaker CB2, the start resistor R and the alternating current circuit breaker CB3 constitute a parallel circuit, and the transformer T is connected with the converter C through the parallel circuit constituted by the start resistor R and the alternating current circuit breaker CB3. When the direct current side of the converter breaks down, control protection is performed to simultaneously send commands for skipping the alternating current incoming line circuit breaker and the circuit breaker connected with the start resistor in parallel. Under the condition that the alternating current incoming line circuit breaker fails, the start resistor is connected into the fault circuit, and thus a fault current flowing through the converter before the skipping of the upper stage circuit breaker is effectively reduced, safety of a converter valve is protected and design parameters of original components of equipment are reduced.
