Claim 11:
12. A method of controlling the isolated bus inverter system of claim 1 to avoid a shoot-through condition, the method comprising:
determining a default time period for waiting between turning off one of at least one pair of switches of at least one of the plurality of inverter circuits and turning on another one of the at least one pair of switches that avoids a shoot-through condition;
monitoring a plurality of electrical parameters of the at least one of the plurality of inverter circuits including a first current through the one of the at least one pair of switches and a second current through the other one of the at least one pair of switches;
identifying a pair of switches of the at least one of the plurality of inverter circuits and associated with a shoot-through condition;
performing a comparison of the electrical parameters including the first current and the second current for the pair of switches associated with the shoot-through condition; and
reducing the default time period until the comparison of the electrical parameters for the pair of switches associated with the shoot-through condition indicates that the shoot-through condition is occurring or there is a risk of the shoot-through condition occurring.
