Summary:A power device comprising at least two capacitors in series to each other and in parallel to a DC power source. The power device may comprises a first converter that comprises a controller configured to balance a voltage of the at least two capacitors. The power device may comprises a second converter connected to the at least two capacitors. The second converter may comprise at least three input conductors, each connected to a terminal of the at least two capacitors. The second converter may comprise at least two output conductors. The second converter my comprise a switching circuit between the at least three input conductors and at least two output conductors. The second converter may comprise a controller configured to operate the switching circuit. The second converter may passively preserve the voltage balance between the at least two capacitors.
