ABSTRACT:
A power converter protecting apparatus include series transformers connected in series to phase power lines, respectively, of an electric power system, power converters connected to secondary windings of the transformers, respectively, a current detector for detecting system currents flowing through the phase power lines, a current detector for detecting converter currents flowing to the power converters from the secondary windings, respectively, a high-speed decision circuit for outputting a decision signal upon determination of occurrence of a system fault on the basis of the system current, a switch for issuing an output voltage zero command upon reception of the fault decision signal, and a pulse generating circuit for controlling a gate pulse signal supplied to the power converters for setting to zero the outputs of the power converters in response to the output voltage zero command at a time point when the converter current decreases below an allowable breaking current thereof.
