ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A power circuit arrangement for a power conditioning system adapted to supply variable frequency, variable magnitude voltage to an electromagnetic device such as an electric motor having a center-tapped winding includes first and second inverting thyristors connected to the respective winding ends and connected in series with a transistor chopper across a unidirectional source so that the inverting thyristors may be gated on alternately at a relatively low modulation frequency while the chopper is time ratio controlled at a higher carrier frequency to selectively vary the voltage applied to the winding; a capacitor in shunt to the chopper which is over- charged due to winding leakage reactance when the chopper is turned off to reverse bias and "soft" commutate the thyristors when they are not conducting load current; a free-wheeling thyristor connected between the winding center tap and the chopper and poled to form a low-impedance free-wheeling path for winding current in series with the inverting thyristors when the chopper is turned off; and first and second energy recovery diodes connected across the serial arrangement of the chopper with the respective inverting thyristors to provide paths for out-of-phase currents and for current when the free-wheeling thyristor is turned off during commutation of the inverting thyristors.
