However, even earthing carried out correctly is not a sufficient measure to ensure a good connection between the VSC control module and earth. In fact, since the control module of the contactor is connected to the metallic base of the VSC by means of a copper connection (Fig. 7), it is always necessary to check that the connection is intact.
