Abstract

An arrangement having a first group of rectifiers, which form a series circuit on the DC voltage side and which can be connected to a first AC voltage network, and having a reserve rectifier that, in the event of a fault in one of the rectifiers, can be electrically connected by suitable switching apparatuses to the first AC voltage network and on the DC voltage side to a first DC voltage line to form an augmented series circuit with the rectifiers. An installation for transmitting electric power between at least one first wind farm with at least one wind power installation and the first power supply system, including the first group of rectifiers, is able to be connected to the first wind farm via the first AC voltage network.
