Abstract

An installation for transmission of high-voltage direct current comprises a converter (SR1) which is controlled by a control unit (CU1). The control unit comprises a quotient-forming member, which forms a current order (IO) for the current (Id) in the dc connection of the installation in dependence on the quotient between a power order (PO) and a calculating value (UDF) of the direct voltage (Ud) at the converter, and a low-pass filter with a bandwidth (1/T1, 1/T2) capable of being controlled, which forms the calculating value as a filtered measured value (UD) of the direct voltage. The control unit comprises a signal-forming member which forms a state signal (FC), indicating that a short-circuit fault has occurred. The state signal influences the bandwidth of the low-pass filter such that the bandwidth is temporarily changed from a smaller value (1/T1) to a larger value (1/T2).
