ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a converter provided with a resonant circuit (16), which converter comprises a device (31) for measuring the derivative (dI/dt) of the current through the current valves82, 3) and a detection device (32) co-operating with said measuring device (31) for detecting a short-circuit in the converter, the detection device (32) being adapted to detect a short-circuit current when the current derivative (dI/dt) measured by the measuring device (31) is equal to or exceeds a stipulated current derivative limit value (dI/dtlim) during a length of time exceeding a stipulated time limit value (tlim). The invention also relates to a method for controlling such a converter.
