Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système pour contrôler le convertisseur d'une installation de production d'électricité comprenant au moins un générateur électrique, tel qu'un aérogénérateur, relié à un réseau électrique, en présence de baisses de tension dans ledit réseau. Le générateur électrique est un générateur asynchrone à double alimentation formé par deux bobinages, un bobinage situé dans le stator relié directement au réseau, et un bobinage situé dans le rotor alimenté en régime normal par ledit convertisseur qui impose une tension prédéterminée appelé courant du point de consigne. Dans le cas d'une baisse de tension, le convertisseur impose un nouveau courant du point de consigne qui résulte de l'addition de l'ancien courant du point de consigne et d'un courant de démagnétisation qui produit un flux dans le bobinage du rotor opposés au flux libre, ce qui réduit la tension dans les connecteurs du convertisseur.
