A wiring arrangement and an appliance for limiting the harmonics of a
current supplied to a frequency converter from an AC electricity supply
network, which frequency converter can be connected to a three-phase AC
electricity supply network, in which frequency converter is an
uncontrolled network bridge (10) for rectifying the AC voltage of the AC
electricity supply network, a DC intermediate circuit, in which is a
filtering capacitor (C.sub.DC), and a load bridge (11) provided with
power semiconductor switches for forming three-phase AC voltage (U, V,
W), and which load bridge can be controlled with pulse-width modulation
by means of a control unit, and in which DC intermediate circuit is a
choke, in which is a choke part (L1, L2) arranged on both the positive
and the negative pole, and in which wiring arrangement is an absorption
circuit for limiting the harmonics of the current supplied from the AC
electricity supply network, in which the absorption circuit is arranged
in the DC intermediate voltage circuit, the absorption circuit contains a
serial connection of a choke (L3) and a capacitor (C1) connected in
parallel with a filter capacitor (C.sub.DC), the choke of the DC
intermediate voltage circuit is a two-branch DC choke wound onto the
common core, which contains pillars and the yokes between them, and in
which an additional pillar for the choke of the absorption circuit is
arranged in the magnetic core of the choke.
