Abstract

A circuit arrangement is described for supplying a load (1) from a direct voltage source (14) through a switch bridge (3 to 6), by which the direct voltage source (14) can be connected in alternating polarity to the load (1), comprising a control circuit (17) for controlling the switch bridge (3 to 6); and including a circuit for precisely adjusting and controlling a given D.C. component through the load by a device for measuring a current (I1) through the load (1) and supplying a corresponding measurement value and in that the control circuit (17) comprises an integration stage (18) for integrating the measurement value, a comparison stage (20) for comparing the integrated measurement value with a reference value (of 21) and for supplying a switching signal (at 22) when these values correspond to each other and a signal-producing stage (23) for resetting the integration stage (18) to an initial state and for reversing the polarity of the current (I1) through the load (1) upon the occurrence of the switching signal (at 22).
