A method for controlling an inverter having at least two phase modules having respective upper and lower valve branches with at least three two-pole subsystems connected in series, includes in the event of failure of at least one subsystem in a faulty valve branch of a defective phase module the following method steps: a) identifying the faulty a defective upper or lower valve branch in the identified defective phase module in which one or more subsystems have failed; b) controlling a terminal voltage of the one or more failed subsystems in the faulty valve branch so as to be permanently zero; and c) controlling in each of the upper and lower fault-free valve branches having fault-free subsystems a number of fault-free subsystems corresponding to the one or more failed subsystems such that their terminal voltages of the controlled fault-free subsystems terminal voltages are permanently zero. |
