Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure discloses a power transforming apparatus capable of reducing a stress of a converter switch during a PFC operation, an operation method thereof, and an air conditioner including the same. To this end, the power transforming apparatus according to the present disclosure may determine the number of converters for performing the PFC operation based on a magnitude of input power and a speed of the motor. Furthermore, the PFC operation may be performed using only one converter when determining a low-load in order to improve efficiency. In addition, a target converter channel may be selected using a random function or determined to be changed using a previous operation history without specifying a target converter channel in advance at an initial stage of the PFC operation so as not to add a stress to any one converter switch.
