Abstract

Abstract A device for removing D.C. components from output voltages of a multi-phase inverter which converts a D.C. voltage into first to N-th phases of A.C. voltages comprises first to (N-1)th detectors connected between the first-phase output line of the multi-phase inverter and the second- to N-th-phase output lines of the multi-phase inverter, respectively. The device also comprises controllers for respectively controlling the second- to N-th-phase output voltages of the inverter in such a manner that the D.C. components detected by the first to (N-1)th detectors are nullified.
