The common-mode filter module includes a common-mode filter L1 and a coil arranged on the common-mode filter. One end of the resistor FR1 is connected to the live wire of the alternating current, the other end of the resistor FR1 is connected to the common-mode filter, and one end of the varistor RV1 is connected between the resistor FR1 and the common-mode filter. The other end of the varistor RV1 is connected to the 5th and 6th feet of the coil and then connected to the neutral line of the alternating current. The output end of the common-mode filter L1 is connected to the bridge rectifier and the capacitor CE1. The bridge rectifier and the capacitor CE1 are connected in parallel and then connected to the load. The varistor RV1 is a conventional varistor with a model of 14D471, the bridge rectifier DB1 has a model of GBL410, and the common-mode filter L1 is a UU10.5 magnetic core.
[0017] Example 2
[0018] Combination Figure 2A circuit for reducing lightning surge current includes a resistor FR1, a varistor RV1, a common-mode filter module, a bridge rectifier, and a capacitor CE1. The common-mode filter module includes a common-mode filter L1 and a coil arranged on the common-mode filter. One end of the resistor FR1 is connected to the live wire of the alternating current, and the other end of the resistor FR1 is connected to the common-mode filter. Pin 4 of the common-mode filter is connected to one end of the varistor RV1 and then connected to the bridge rectifier and the capacitor CE1. The bridge rectifier and the capacitor CE1 are connected in parallel and then connected to the load. The other end of the varistor RV1 is connected to pins 5 and 6 of the coil and then connected to the neutral wire of the alternating current. The varistor RV1 is a conventional varistor with a model of 14D471, the bridge rectifier DB1 has a model of GBL410, and the common-mode filter L1 is a UU10.5 magnetic core.
[0019] Working principle: when 220V is normally input between ACL and ACN, the varistor RV1 is not triggered, the 5th and 6th pins of the coil are vacant, and the current is directly loaded onto the common mode filter after passing through the resistor FR1. Then the current passes through the 1st and 4th pins of the common mode filter, and after being filtered by the bridge rectifier DB1 and the capacitor CE1, it provides power to the load RL1. After the load, it flows back from the 3rd pin to the 2nd pin, and the magnetic fields generated by the current cancel each other out.
[0020] When 2KV lightning is injected between ACL and ACN, the high voltage breaks down the varistor RV1, and a large amount of current will flow through pins 5 and 6 of the coil. The magnetic balance generated by the common-mode filter (common-mode inductor) is broken, and it becomes a differential-mode filter (common-mode inductor). At this time, the differential-mode filter will hinder the sudden current of lightning strikes and reduce the current passing through. Part of the current passes through pins 1 and 4 of the common-mode filter, the bridge rectifier, and capacitor CE1 for filtering to provide power to the load RL1, and then flows back from pin 3 to pin 2 after the load. The magnetic fields generated by the current cancel each other out. At this time, the current flowing through the test bridge rectifier DB1 is 68.8A (when the varistor RV1 and the coil are not set, the current flowing through the test bridge rectifier DB1 is 280A), and the surge current is significantly reduced.
[0021] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
