The invention relates to an energy taking circuit used in series with a power module equalizing resistor. A capacitor positive pole of a power unit is taken as a voltage input end HVin, and two powersupply power sources VOUT1 and VOUT2 are outputted. A voltage equalizing resistor, a first full control switching device, a rectifier diode, a first voltage sampling circuit, a driving circuit, a starting circuit, a starting capacitor, a storage capacitor, a second voltage sampling circuit, a main control circuit, a power conversion circuit and a power supply diode are included. The energy takingcircuit is independent of an original energy taking power source on a power module, when the original energy taking power source fails, standby power supply can be provided for a bypass contactor trigger circuit of the power unit to ensure reliable implementation of the contactor bypass action. The energy taking circuit is connected with a power unit capacitor after being connected in series withthe equalizing resistor, voltage withstanding levels of a full control device and the storage capacitor are reduced, and design convenience is high. The energy taking circuit is advantaged in that thecircuit principle is concise, reliability is high, the VOUT1 and VOUT2 dual power source output function is achieved, and flexible application is achieved.
