Abstract: An object is to obtain a low-frequency circuit breaker which has a simple configuration and a small size as a whole and is advantageous in view of costs. There is provided a low-frequency circuit breaker, in which a semiconductor switch and a mechanical switch are connected in parallel with each other. The semiconductor switch is configured by connecting a thyristor and a thyristor in anti-parallel with each other. These members are controlled by the circuit breaker control circuit.

Abstract: There is provided a power converter apparatus including a detector detecting a system voltage, and a controller stably outputting power generated by the wind power generator to the power system based on a power instruction value and controlling an output voltage to stabilize the system voltage based on a voltage instruction value in a case where the system voltage is within a preset range, and controlling an active current component and a reactive current component of an output current to stabilize the system voltage of the power system by use of a voltage drop due to impedance of the power system in a case where the system voltage is outside the preset range.
