Zusammenfassung:A method and arrangement for reducing current stress in an intermediate circuit of a three-level inverter comprising a first capacitance and a second capacitance, the arrangement comprising means (10) for modifying a voltage reference U 1 of the inverter by adding a third harmonic U 3 to the voltage reference, means (20) for pulse width modulation controlling the inverter according to the modified voltage reference, and means (30) for adjusting the amplitude and/or the phase difference of the third harmonic added to the voltage reference of the inverter such that a quantity indicating a magnitude of a current stress on the first capacitance and the second capacitance at a frequency of the third harmonic is reduced substantially to a minimum or below a predetermined level.
