High voltage DC power supply and method of operating such high voltage DC power supply

摘要

Output voltages for modules (M1-Mn) are added up in a series connection. The cumulative voltage formed in this way is attached to a load (14) by creating a load circuit. In the event of a short-circuit, a safe operation is achieved by the fact that part of the modules can be switched over into an operating mode, in which they pick up power from the load circuit. - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a method for operating a high-voltage direct current supply.
