A wind turbine with an electric converter module having a first section forming a first enclosure capable of withstanding a pressure from an arc flash inside the first enclosure. The first enclosure houses an electric protective device electrically connected between a first electric conductor and the second electric conductor. A second section is arranged adjacent to the second side wall of the first section, and forms a second enclosure housing an electric converter system connected to the second electric conductor and a third electric conductor to allow conversion of electric power from the third electric conductor to electric power to the second electric conductor. A door in the second section serves to allow service personnel to access components of the electric converter system from outside the enclosure.
