    Abstract: Example power converters and detection methods are described. One example power converter includes a control device, a plurality of wiring terminals, a power conversion circuit, and a plurality of temperature detection devices. The control device is configured to: when an absolute value of a difference between a temperature value of one wiring terminal in the plurality of wiring terminals and a first reference temperature value is greater than or equal to a first temperature difference threshold, output a signal indicating that an abnormality occurs in the plurality of wiring terminals. In this application, a relative change of a temperature of one wiring terminal relative to another wiring terminal can be directly determined based on temperature values of the plurality of wiring terminals, thereby quickly determining, based on a magnitude of the relative change, whether there is an abnormal temperature rise caused by loose connections in the plurality of wiring terminals.

    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: 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: Examples of power conversion devices and control methods are described. In one example, a power conversion device includes direct current buses, an inverter circuit, and a controller. After the power conversion device switches from a high voltage ride through state to a low voltage ride through state, the controller controls a change rate of an output active current of the inverter circuit to be a first change rate in a first time interval and a second change rate in a second time interval respectively in a low voltage ride through reactive current response process. The second change rate is greater than the first change rate. A sum of first interval duration of the first time interval and second interval duration of the second time interval is less than or equal to a low voltage ride through reactive current response duration threshold.
