Abstract: A precharging circuit for precharging an intermediate circuit capacitor of a converter formed from at least one electrolytic capacitor using a grid current from a supply grid before the converter is connected to the supply grid and is used for the reformation of at least one electrolytic capacitor of the intermediate circuit capacitor. A method is provided for the reformation of an intermediate circuit capacitor of a converter formed from at least one electrolytic capacitor, which is connected to the supply grid using a precharging circuit. A converter is created for converting an AC grid voltage into a direct voltage or vice versa, with a device for the reformation of electrolytic capacitors of an intermediate circuit capacitor of the converter using an integrated precharging circuit of the converter. Existing hardware can be used for the reformation of electrolytic capacitors in a converter, and the expense associated with the reformation can be minimized.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cover to enclose a longitudinal section of at least one electrical conductor and prevent the formation of an arc or a flashover. The cover has at least two cover parts made of an electrically insulating material. A first cover part and a second cover part each have at least one passage opening. Each passage opening has an electrical conductor guided through it, so that no gap opening, or only a small gap opening remains between the outside surface of the conductor and a bordering wall of the passage opening. Moreover, the cover has at least one connection location. At this connection location, two of the cover parts that are present lie against one another in a force-fit and/or positive-fit manner and form a nondestructively detachable connection. This ensures accessibility to the protected longitudinal section.
