CASCADE CONVERTER

The present application provides a cascade converter, including a main control system, a plurality of power modules, and a bypass circuit corresponding to each power module; where the main control system is communicatively connected to each power module, the power modules are electrically connected in turn, and any one of the power modules has at least one communicable power module, the communicable power module is an else power module communicatively connected to the power module, and the number of power modules spaced apart is within a preset value; the power module on which a fault occurs is a faulty power module, the faulty power module sends a fault signal to the main control system; the main control system generates a bypass command according to the fault signal and sends it to the faulty power module and the communicable power module of the faulty power module.
