This electrical energy conversion system (18) comprises a primary module (20) and a secondary module (22). The primary module (20) has two input terminals (34) suitable for receiving an electric current, a primary winding (L1), and a primary capacitor (C1) connected to the primary winding (L1) and to the input terminals (34). The secondary module (22) has two output terminals (38), a secondary winding (L2), and a secondary capacitor (C2) connected to the secondary winding (L2) and to the output terminals (38). A current (I2) is suitable to be induced in the secondary winding (L2) when the primary winding (L1) and the secondary winding (L2) are magnetically coupled, the current received between the input terminals (34) flowing through the primary winding (L1). The secondary module (22) further comprises a secondary switch (SW2) electrically connected to the secondary capacitor (C2) and to the secondary winding (L2), and means for controlling the secondary switch (SW2), the secondary switch (SW2) being suitable to switch, reversibly, between a first configuration in which the current (I2) induced in the secondary winding (L2) is suitable to flow to the output terminals (38), and a second configuration in which said induced current (I2) is suitable to flow in a closed loop through the secondary winding (L2) and the secondary capacitor (C2) without being delivered to the output terminals (38).
