METHOD FOR OPERATING A WIND TURBINE AND WIND TURBINE

This disclosure is directed to a method for operating a wind turbine which includes a speed-variable drive system. The system includes an electrical machine and a pulsewidth modulation-controlled converter. The speed-variable drive system is connected to an electrical grid. In the event of a transient grid fault, a frequency of the pulsewidth modulation is determined in response to a current in an electrical circuit connected to the converter.
