Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of multi-level converters, in particular to a method and device for fault detection and location of sub-modules of a modular multi-level converter. Background technique [0002] Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) has the advantages of high modularity, strong expansibility, low switching frequency and good output voltage harmonic characteristics. However, MMC neutron modules are numerous and the topology contains a large number of switching devices, which increases the risk of switching failures. According to statistics, more than 38% of the failures of power electronic converters are caused by the failure of semiconductor power devices. Therefore, the fault diagnosis technology of switching devices has important application significance, and has gradually become the focus of power electronic power converter technology. MMC usually contains a large number of switching devices, and the proposed metho...
