METHOD FOR OPERATING A DC VOLTAGE GRID AND POWER CONVERTER FOR CONNECTING A DC VOLTAGE GRID TO AN AC VOLTAGE GRID

An electrical system includes a power converter and a DC/DC converter configured to transfer power between an AC side and a DC side thereof. The AC side is connected to an AC supply grid and the DC side is connected to a DC grid. The power converter has a bridge circuit connected to the AC side of the power converter via AC relays and connected to the DC side of the power converter via circuit breakers. A measuring device measures a DC power converter voltage and a DC/DC output voltage present on the output side of the DC/DC converter. A control circuit is configured to drive the DC/DC converter. The application also describes a method for operating an electrical system.
