Title:
OVERLOAD DETECTION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/093814
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to an overload detection device (1) for detecting an overload condition in a DC system (5) comprising a DC voltage source (4) and several electrical devices (8, 9, 10) electrically connected to the DC voltage source. The overload detection device comprises an overload detection unit for detecting the overload condition and a reducing unit for reducing the power consumed by an electrical device of the several electrical devices, if the overload detection unit detects the overload condition. Since the overload detection device reduces the power consumed by an electrical device of the several electrical devices, if the overload detection unit detects the overload condition, the overload condition may be removed, without requiring manual intervention. This allows for an improved recovery of the DC system.
