Power electronics
What is power electronics?
Power electronics is a field of electrical engineering that deals with the conversion, control and regulation of electrical energy. Specifically, it is about ensuring that electrical energy is supplied in an efficient and controlled manner. Voltage, current, frequency and torque are crucial here. For example, direct current is converted to alternating current.
Where and how is power electronics used?
Power electronics are used whenever electricity needs to be converted:
- Motor control in plant and vehicle construction
- Energy supply with PV inverters or wind power converters
- Railway technology with transaction inverters for trains and trams
