Abstract

A fault tolerance method based on a seabed medium-voltage direct-current converter, and a redundant topological structure are provided. The method controls and adjusts working states of resonant conversion modules and switch states of redundant switching structures connected to the resonant conversion modules, to supply power to a load; and in the process of supplying power to the load, obtains fault diagnosis results for the resonant conversion modules. Based on the fault diagnosis results, that a faulty module exists in the resonant conversion modules, the faulty module is removed. After the faulty module is removed, a redundant resonant conversion module is determined, and the working state of the redundant resonant conversion module and the switch state of the redundant switching structure connected to the redundant resonant conversion module are adjusted, wherein the redundant resonant conversion module is configured to replace the faulty module.
