    Abstract: Example three-level inverters, control methods, and systems are provided. One example three-level inverter includes a first bus capacitor, a second bus capacitor, a power conversion circuit, and a controller. The first bus capacitor is connected in the middle of the current bus and the power conversion circuit. The power conversion circuit is configured to convert a direct current into a three-phase alternating current for output. The controller is configured to determine a balance reference by using a difference between absolute values of voltages of the positive and negative direct current buses and an even harmonic current in a grid-connected current, where the balance reference is used to enable the three-level inverter to generate a current signal for balancing the voltages of the positive and negative direct current buses.

    Abstract: This application discloses a common-mode voltage adjustment method and apparatus, and a control system, and relates to the field of electronic technologies. In an example method, a controller generates an injection instruction of a first common-mode voltage based on a first modulation scheme, generates an injection instruction of a second common-mode voltage based on a second modulation scheme, and generates an injection instruction of a third common-mode voltage based on the injection instruction of the first common-mode voltage and the injection instruction of the second common-mode voltage during a modulation scheme switching period. The injection instruction of the third common-mode voltage may be used to control a inverter circuit to output the third common-mode voltage.

    Abstract: A detection method and a related apparatus. Whether a first converter and a second converter are connected to a same combiner device is determined by determining an output port voltage signal of the first converter and an output port voltage signal of the second converter, so that first information or second information is generated and notified to staff. Generally, if a first converter and a second converter in a combiner system are not connected to a same combiner device, it may be considered as that a wire connection of the first converter or the second converter is incorrect. In the detection method and the related apparatus, whether there is a wiring error in the combiner system of the converters can be quickly and accurately determined in an application scenario in which voltage information at a combiner point cannot be obtained.

The controller adjusts the output current of the first converter to a second current value based on output power of the first converter and a power threshold, where a difference between adjusted output power of the first converter and the power threshold is less than a difference between the unadjusted output power of the first converter and the power threshold. The controller adjusts the output current of the first converter based on the first current value and the second current value.
