    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a wind turbine which comprises a power generator, a generator side converter, a grid side converter, a DC link electrically connected to an output of the generator side converter and an input of the grid side converter. The method comprises monitoring a wind turbine signal for detection of an operational condition which requires an increase of an output voltage of the grid side converter, upon detection of the operational condition, initiate an over-modulation mode wherein the grid side converter is operated with a modulation index in an over-modulation range, and upon the detection of the operational condition, initiate a DC-voltage adjustment mode wherein the a DC-voltage of the DC link is increased from a first voltage level towards a second voltage level.
