Abstract

A converter system includes a power converter including a first bridge circuit including at least one first switching device. The power converter also includes a second bridge circuit magnetically coupled to the first bridge circuit. The second bridge circuit includes at least one second switching device. The converter system also includes a plurality of first conductors of opposing polarities coupled to the first bridge circuit. The converter system further includes a plurality of second conductors of opposing polarities. At least one second conductor of the plurality of second conductors is coupled to the second bridge circuit. The converter system also includes a third conductor coupled to one first conductor of the plurality of first conductors and coupled to the second bridge circuit.
