Abstract:
A converter includes first and second DC terminals for connection to a DC network, limb(s) connected between the first and second DC terminals, and a controller. Each limb includes a phase element and DC side sub-converter(s). The phase element has switching elements and AC terminal(s) for connection to an AC network, the switching elements being switchable to selectively interconnect a DC side voltage at a DC side of the phase element and an AC side voltage at an AC side of the phase element, The DC side sub-converter(s) connected to the DC side of the phase element. The controller selectively controls the switching elements and the operation of each DC side sub-converter as a voltage synthesiser. The controller also controls the switching elements to provide a blocking voltage to limit or block the flow of a fault current between the AC and DC networks and through each limb.

Claim (Index 24):
The converter according to  claim 23 , wherein the or each limb further includes a third DC side sub-converter connected in series with the corresponding first DC side sub-converter, the or each third DC side sub-converter is configured to be operable as a voltage synthesiser, and the or each second DC side sub-converter is connected to a common connection point between the corresponding first and third DC side sub-converters to form a \u201cT\u201d arrangement.
