Title:
EARTH LEAKAGE DETECTION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/127307
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is an earth leakage detection device capable of quickly distinguishing between an ordinary earth leakage and a thunder surge. The earth leakage detection device comprises: a zero-phase current transformer (ZCT) (10) through which AC cable runs pass; an integration calculation unit (20) for integrating the output voltage of the zero-phase current transformer (10); an integrated value comparison unit (30) for, when the calculation result obtained by the integration calculation unit (20) is greater than a predetermined range, outputting a first signal; a waveform identification unit (40) for detecting and counting the inflection points of the output voltage waveform of the zero-phase current transformer and for, when the number of the inflection points reaches a predetermined number, outputting a second signal; and an earth current detection unit (50) for, when the integrated value comparison unit (30) outputs the first signal and the waveform identification unit (40) outputs the second signal, outputting an earth leakage detection signal indicating that earth leakage is occurring in the AC cable runs.
