Zusammenfassung:An assembly having a multilevel power converter, which has at least one phase module, wherein the phase module has a plurality of modules, each with a first electrical module terminal and a second electrical module terminal. The plurality of modules includes modules of a first type, which are able to output a voltage of only one polarity or zero voltage at their first electrical module terminal and their second electrical module terminal. The plurality of modules includes modules of a second type, which are able to output a voltage of one polarity, a voltage of opposite polarity or zero voltage at their first electrical module terminal and their second electrical module terminal. Depending on the polarity of a voltage across the modules of the second type, a voltage limiting device limits the voltage.
