Abstract

An electrical device for a converter has at least one capacitor having a first connection and a second connection, a first busbar and a second busbar is disclosed. A respective busbar has a greater extension along a transverse direction than along a longitudinal direction, and has a greater extension along the longitudinal direction than along a vertical direction. The respective busbar has a first surface and a second surface which are opposite one other with respect to the vertical direction. The device also has a first contact-connection device electrically conductively contact-connected to the first connection and via which the first connection is electrically conductively connected to the first busbar, and a second contact-connection device electrically conductively contact-connected to the second connection via which the second connection is electrically conductively connected to the second busbar. The busbars delimit a connection space in the vertical direction for connecting a semiconductor power unit.
