Abstract

A method for controlling an electric energy converter, which includes, for at least one first physical quantity of the converter having a variable maximum that is a function of a plurality of possible operating points, each possible operating point being associated with a value of the variable maximum and being defined by a value of at least one operating parameter of the converter: determining a current operating point of the converter from the plurality of possible operating points; determining the value of the variable maximum associated with the current operating point, referred to as a first value; determining a current value of the at least one first physical quantity, referred to as a second value; and activating or not activating a limiter circuit, which limits the at least one first physical quantity, as a function of a result of a comparison between the first value and the second value.
