    Abstract: A load commutated converter interconnects an AC power grid with an AC load and comprises a grid-side converter, a DC link and a load-side converter. A method for controlling the load commutated converter comprises: determining a gridside firing angle for the grid-side converter; determining a load-side firing angle for the load-side converter; determining a grid voltage of the AC power grid; modifying the grid-side firing angle and/or the load-side firing angle based on the grid voltage, such that when an undervoltage condition in the AC power grid occurs, the operation of the load commutated converter is adapted to a change in the grid voltage; and applying the grid-side firing angle to the grid-side converter and the load-side firing angle to the load-side converter.

    Abstract: An electrical converter with at least two output phases includes a rectifier and a thyristor-based inverter interconnected by a DC link with an inductor, wherein the thyristor-based inverter includes a half-bridge with at least two half-bridge arms for each output phase of the electrical converter and each arm being provided by a thyristor. A method for switching the electrical converter includes: cyclically switching the thyristors of the inverter, such that at least one time instant, two thyristors of different half-bridge arms are switched on simultaneously, such that a pulse number, which determines at how many time instants thyristors of the inverter are switched during one stator voltage period, is lower than the number of half-bridge arms of the inverter.
