Patent ID: 10209287

Abstract:
A quick-action leakage detection protection circuit with a regular self-checking function is provided. The quick-action leakage detection protection circuit may include a power input end, a power load end, a power user end, twin induction coils for detecting leakage current and low resistance failure, a control chip, a trip coil in which an iron core is disposed, a reset button, a self-checking chip, and a self-checking silicon controlled rectifier. The reset button may be linked with a main circuit switch, an analog path switch, and a normally-open self-checking path switch. The main circuit switch may include a pair of dynamic contact levers extended from the power load end, a first pair of static contact ends extended from the power input end passing through the twin induction coils, and a second pair of static contact ends extended from the power user end. In some embodiments, a first end of the trip coil may be connected to a live line end of the power input end and to the live line of the power load end via the first normally-closed switch. And, a second end of the trip coil may be connected to a neutral line end of the power load end via a second normally-closed switch.
