  • Abstract
    This paper deals with a protection circuit against an overvoltage caused by a sudden battery removal from the dc link terminals. The system can be protected against this overvoltage by opening the neutral point of the generator and by engaging a dissipating resistor across the dc link terminals. This method is successfully tested and validated.
