Abstract:
This application relates to a voltage source converter, especially for use in High Voltage Direct Current power distribution/transmission, and to methods of control of such a voltage source converter. The voltage source converter has at least one phase limb having a high-side DC terminal, a low-side DC terminal and an AC terminal. In embodiments of the invention each phase limb comprises a voltage wave-shaper operable, in use, to provide a selectively variable voltage level. Each phase limb also has a switch arrangement operable to provide at least first and second switch states. In the first switch state the low-side DC terminal is electrically connected to the AC terminal via a first path that includes the voltage wave-shaper. In the second switch state the high-side DC terminal is electrically connected to the AC terminal via a second path that includes the voltage wave-shaper.

Claim (Index 6):
The voltage source converter of  claim 1 , wherein the voltage wave-shaper is configured such that the voltage level can be selectively varied between a positive voltage level and a negative voltage level and wherein the voltage wave-shaper is in series with a fixed capacitance.
