ABSTRACT:
A PWM based converter including a Y-.DELTA., Y--Y transformer (or a .DELTA.--.DELTA., .DELTA.-Y transformer) wherein the Y-.DELTA. portion of the transformer phase shifts input voltage by 30.degree. with respect to the Y--Y portion of the transformer and thereby eliminates many low order supply line harmonics. The rectifier also includes two series connected PWM switching rectifiers, one rectifier receiving input voltages from the Y--Y portion of the transformer and the other rectifier receiving input voltages from the Y-.DELTA. portion of the transformer, and a controller for controlling the first and second rectifiers so as to eliminate low order harmonics on the supply lines that are not eliminated by the transformer. A capacitive bank is required between each rectifier and the transformer.
