An electric converter system including modules nested inside one another which have at least two levels of nesting is disclosed. At least one embedded module of a first nesting level is provided, which includes at least two electrical connections and a power train. The power train includes at least two embedded modules nested with each other of an at least second next lower nesting level, such that the modules are embedded inside one another.
