The Switch

Full-power converters

FPC 900 – 4500 kW


The Switch full-power converters (FPC) are optimized to work with our permanent magnet generators. Designed for the highest-level performance in wind power generation, the robust grid-side converters ensure future-proof electricity quality to meet the ever-stricter network requirements for harmonics, flicker and fault ride-through (FRT).

The Switch FPCs enable easy power factor control. This means that all the current can be used for active or reactive power generation, allowing a 100% reactive power feed, even in the absence of wind.

Because The Switch FPCs are not as sensitive to changes in the network as traditional converters, they offer advantageous control flexibility for adapting to ever-changing operating conditions.
