[0002] High-voltage direct current (HVDC) switches are key components in power transmission and distribution systems, used to control the on and off of current in high-voltage direct current grids. With the continuous advancement of grid technology and the increasing requirements for power system reliability, the performance and stability of HVDC switches have become a focal issue in grid operations. As an important component of HVDC switches, the design and function of electromagnetic releases directly affect the response speed, reliability and safety of the switches.

[0003] In the prior art, electromagnetic releases usually contain one or more coils, which control the opening and closing of switches through the action of electromagnetic force. However, a common problem in traditional designs is that the two coils may use a common iron core, which may cause electromagnetic interference and affect the stability and independence of the release. In addition, the secondary circuit of the coil often contains resistors and capacitors to achieve smooth control of current or regulation of magnetic field, but this increases the complexity and failure rate of the equipment and also increases the cost.

[0004] In order to meet the high reliability requirements of grid customers for HVDC switch operating mechanisms, strict countermeasure requirements are put forward for electromagnetic releases in particular. These requirements include avoiding the use of a common core for two coils and not using resistors and capacitors in the secondary circuit to reduce potential failure points and improve operational safety. The electromagnetic releases and their HVDC switch designs currently on the market often find it difficult to simultaneously achieve these requirements, especially in terms of maintaining equipment cost competitiveness and compactness of the operating mechanism.

[0061] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram inside the main coil of the electromagnetic tripping device according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, showing the main push rod in the main push rod extended position.

[0064] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the electromagnetic tripping device 10 triggers the switch action by electromagnetic force. The electromagnetic tripping device 10 includes: a main coil 110 and a main iron core 112, a main top rod 114, a control coil 120 and a control iron core 122, and a control top rod 124.

[0065] According to the embodiment of the present application, the main iron core 112 is arranged in the main coil 110 along the central axis of the main coil 110. The iron core is in the electromagnetic release to enhance the magnetic field generated by the coil. It is usually made of materials with high magnetic permeability, such as silicon steel sheets, ferrites or certain alloys. When current passes through the coil wound on the iron core, a magnetic field is generated around the iron core. The functions of the iron core are, for example:

[0066] Flux guidance: The iron core can concentrate and guide the magnetic flux generated by the coil so that the magnetic flux flows along a specific path, thereby improving the efficiency and performance of the electromagnetic device.

[0067] Magnetic field enhancement: Due to the high magnetic permeability of the iron core, it can significantly enhance the magnetic field generated by the coil, which means that even at a smaller current, sufficient electromagnetic force can be generated.

[0068] Conversion of electromagnetic force: In an electromagnetic release, the movement of the iron core can be converted into mechanical action. When the coil is energized, the iron core moves under the action of the magnetic field, and this movement can be transmitted to other mechanical parts, such as the ejector, to trigger the opening and closing of the switch.

[0069] Reduced leakage flux: The iron core helps reduce the leakage flux generated by the coil, that is, the magnetic flux escapes the coil without passing through the iron core, thereby improving the efficiency of the electromagnetic device.

[0070] Heat dissipation: The iron core can also help electromagnetic equipment dissipate heat, reduce eddy current and hysteresis losses caused by changes in the magnetic field, and enable the equipment to work stably for a longer period of time.

[0071] Mechanical support: The iron core also provides mechanical support for the coil, maintaining the shape and position of the coil to prevent deformation or displacement under current shock.

[0072] According to the embodiment of the present application, the main push rod 114 is arranged in the main coil 110 along the central axis of the main coil 110, and can move between the main push rod extended position and the main push rod retracted position along the central axis of the main coil 110. The main push rod 114 triggers the switch action at the main push rod extended position. The push rod is a key mechanical component in the electromagnetic release to realize the conversion of electromagnetic force into mechanical force and trigger the corresponding action. The design and function of the push rod is to ensure that the electromagnetic equipment can correctly control the switch state, such as the opening or closing of the circuit breaker, the connection or disconnection of the contactor, etc. Specifically, the functions and characteristics of the push rod are as follows:

[0073] Force transmission: The ejector pin is directly or indirectly connected to the iron core. When the electromagnetic coil is energized and generates a magnetic field, the iron core moves under the action of the magnetic field. Since the ejector pin is connected to the iron core, the displacement of the iron core is directly converted into the linear movement of the ejector pin, thereby converting the electromagnetic force into mechanical force.

[0074] Trigger switch: The other end of the top rod is designed to contact the mechanical mechanism of the switch (such as the contact operating mechanism). When the top rod moves to a specific position driven by the electromagnetic force, it directly pushes or pulls the switch mechanism, thereby triggering the switch to be turned on or off.

[0075] Precise control: The moving distance and speed of the ejector can be precisely controlled. By adjusting the current of the electromagnetic coil, the displacement of the core can be controlled, and then the movement of the ejector can be controlled, ensuring that the switch responds accurately when needed, meeting the requirements for switch action speed and accuracy in the power system.

[0076] Reliability: The structural design of the ejector needs to consider its ability to operate stably under high voltage or high current. It is usually made of high-strength materials to withstand the electromagnetic force and impact force during switch operation, ensuring that it can perform its tasks reliably under various working conditions.

[0077] According to an embodiment of the present application, the control core 122 is arranged in the control coil 120 along the central axis of the control coil 120, and the control coil 120 can receive current to generate a control magnetic field. The control pin 124 is arranged in the control coil 120 along the central axis of the control coil 120, and can move between a control pin extension position and a control pin retract position along the central axis of the control coil 120, wherein the control core can push the control pin 124 from the control pin retract position to the control pin extension position under the action of the electromagnetic force of the control magnetic field, and wherein the control pin 124 drives the main pin 114 from the main pin retract position to the main pin extension position during the process of moving from the control pin retract position to the control pin extension position. The pin acts as a bridge in the electromagnetic release, connecting the electromagnetic force and the mechanical movement to ensure that the electromagnetic device can efficiently, accurately and reliably control the switch state. In the specific implementation, the design of the pin needs to comprehensively consider the magnitude of the electromagnetic force, the characteristics of the switch mechanism, the durability of the material and the accuracy of the movement path to achieve the best operating effect.

[0078] Therefore, in this application, the main push rod is designed to be linked with the control push rod of another coil (control coil). This means that the electromagnetic force generated by the control coil is transmitted to the main push rod of the main coil through the control push rod, which eventually triggers the switch action, thereby achieving effective coordination of the two coils without sharing the iron core. The linearity of the rod movement avoids operational misalignment or mechanical wear caused by deviation of the movement path.

[0079] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the control iron core 122 is slidably set in the control coil 120, and the control push rod 124 is fixed at one end of the control iron core 122, and the control iron core 122 can be pushed by the electromagnetic force of the control magnetic field to push the control push rod 124 to move from the control push rod retracted position to the control push rod extended position.

[0080] According to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, the control iron core 122 is a hollow ring and is fixedly disposed in the control coil 120, and the control push rod 124 is slidably disposed in the control iron core 122, and the electromagnetic force of the control magnetic field pushes the control push rod 124 to move from a control push rod retracted position to a control push rod extended position.

[0081] That is, there are two main configurations of the interaction between the control core 122 and the control coil 120, both of which are intended to achieve precise operation of the control pin 124 by controlling the magnetic field, thereby affecting the action of the DC switch.

[0082] Configuration 1: Sliding core and fixed ejector

[0083] The control core 122 is slidably disposed inside the control coil 120. This design allows the control core to move freely in the electromagnetic field generated by the control coil. When the control coil 120 is energized, the generated electromagnetic field acts on the control core 122, causing it to move along the central axis of the control coil. The control push rod 124 is fixed to one end of the control core 122, so that when the control core moves, it directly drives the control push rod 124 to move from its retracted position to its extended position. In this configuration, the movement of the control core is the direct power source for the movement of the control push rod, ensuring efficient conversion from electromagnetic signals to mechanical actions.

[0084] Second configuration: fixed core and sliding ejector

[0085] The control core 122 is designed to be in the shape of a hollow ring and is fixed inside the control coil 120. The control push rod 124 is slidably disposed inside the control core 122. When the control coil 120 receives current and generates a control magnetic field, although the control core 122 itself does not move, the electromagnetic force of the control magnetic field will directly act on the control push rod 124, pushing it to move from the retracted position to the extended position. The advantage of this design is that even if the core is fixed, the electromagnetic force can control the switch through the control push rod. At the same time, the hollow ring-shaped core can reduce material usage, reduce weight and cost, and provide sufficient space to accommodate the sliding of the push rod. In this configuration, the material of the push rod is an iron-containing material that can sense electromagnetic force.

[0086] In both configurations, the movement of the control push rod 124 is directly driven by the electromagnetic force of the control magnetic field, which ensures that the electromagnetic release can quickly respond to external signals and realize timely opening and closing of the switch. Whether the fixed push rod is driven by the sliding iron core or the sliding push rod inside the fixed iron core responds to the electromagnetic force, the electromagnetic interference problem that may be caused by the traditional shared iron core design is avoided, and the stability and reliability of the entire electromagnetic release device are improved.

[0087] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the main coil 110 can receive current to generate a main magnetic field, and the main iron core 112 can push the main push rod 114 from a main push rod retracted position to a main push rod extended position under the action of the electromagnetic force of the main magnetic field.

[0088] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the main iron core 112 is slidably set in the main coil 110, and the main top rod 114 is fixed at one end of the main iron core 112, and the main iron core 112 can be pushed by the electromagnetic force of the main magnetic field to push the main top rod 114 from the main top rod retracted position to the main top rod extended position, or the main iron core 112 is a hollow ring and is fixedly set in the main coil 110, and the main top rod 114 is slidably set in the main iron core 112, and the electromagnetic force of the main magnetic field pushes the main top rod 114 from the main top rod retracted position to the main top rod extended position.

[0089] The main coil 110 is one of the core components of the electromagnetic trip device. Its function is to receive the input current and generate the main magnetic field. The main coil is formed by a series of conductive wires wound on an iron core or other magnetic materials. When current passes through these wires, a magnetic field is generated. The strength and direction of this main magnetic field depends on the magnitude and direction of the current passing through the main coil.

[0090] The main iron core 112 is located inside the main coil 110 and is coaxially arranged with the main coil. The main iron core is usually made of a material with high magnetic permeability, such as silicon steel sheet, and its function is to enhance and concentrate the magnetic field generated by the main coil. When the main coil is energized and generates a main magnetic field, the main iron core will be affected by the electromagnetic force, which is sufficient to overcome any friction or other resistance, so that the main iron core moves from the retracted position to the extended position along the central axis of the main coil.

[0091] Under the action of electromagnetic force, the main top rod 114 moves from its retracted position to the extended position. This linear movement of the main top rod is achieved by converting electromagnetic force into mechanical force. In the operation of the high-voltage DC switch, the extension of the main top rod 114 can trigger the opening or closing mechanism of the switch to control the on and off of the high-voltage DC circuit.

[0092] This process describes the interaction between the main coil, the main iron core and the main mandrel in the electromagnetic tripping device, and how to use electromagnetic force to control the operation of the high-voltage DC switch. The current input of the main coil is the starting point of the operation of the electromagnetic tripping device. The main iron core moves in the magnetic field generated by the current, and the main mandrel converts this electromagnetic movement into a mechanical action of the switch opening and closing, forming a key control link for the operation of the high-voltage DC switch. This design not only improves the response speed and control accuracy of the electromagnetic tripping device, but also ensures the stability and reliability of the switch action in a high-voltage DC environment, meeting the high requirements of the power system for the high-voltage DC switch operating mechanism. However, when the main mandrel 114 cannot be driven by the main iron core 112 due to a fault or some other reasons and thus moves from its main mandrel retracted position to its main mandrel extended position, the control mandrel 124 can be used to push the main mandrel 114 based on the electromagnetic force of the control magnetic field provided by the control iron core 122, providing redundancy for the switch control capability, thereby improving the stability of the equipment.

[0093] Similar to the two main configurations of the interaction between the control core 122 and the control coil 120, the two main configurations of the interaction between the main core 112 and the main coil 110 can also adopt a sliding core and a fixed push rod or a fixed core and a sliding push rod, which will not be repeated here.

[0094] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the control push rod 124 is coaxially connected to the main push rod 114. The implementation of the coaxial connection between the control push rod 124 and the main push rod 114 can adopt a variety of methods to achieve mechanical linkage between the two push rods, ensuring that they can perform relative displacement in a fixed axial direction. The following are some exemplary coaxial connection methods according to embodiments of the present application:

[0095] Contact connection: The end of the control push rod 124 is in direct contact with the end surface of the main push rod 114, or is in indirect contact via any one or all of the control iron core 122 and the main iron core 112. When the control push rod moves due to the electromagnetic force, it will directly push or pull the main push rod to move along the same axis.

[0096] Sleeve connection: The end of the control push rod 124 can be designed as a hollow sleeve structure, and a part of the main push rod 114 is inserted into the sleeve. When the electromagnetic force acts on the control push rod, the displacement of the sleeve will drive the axial movement of the main push rod.

[0097] Connecting rod mechanism or linkage arm: The two mandrels can be connected by a connecting rod or linkage arm, which is arranged along the same axis as the mandrel, so that the movement of the control mandrel can be transmitted to the main mandrel through the connecting rod or linkage arm.

[0098] Gear or rack connection: The end of the control push rod 124 can be designed as a gear, and the end of the main push rod 114 can be designed as a matching rack or gear. When the electromagnetic force drives the control push rod to rotate, the main push rod will also move along the axial direction through the meshing of the gear and the rack.

[0099] In actual design, the choice of coaxial connection method is based on specific equipment requirements, space constraints, cost considerations, and reliability requirements. For example, contact connection and sleeve connection are usually simple and low-cost, suitable for the electromagnetic release design of most high-voltage DC switch operating mechanisms, while gear or rack connection and screw connection provide more precise control and longer service life.

[0100] The above is only an example of a coaxial connection. It should be understood that other coaxial connection methods can be used as long as the control top rod 124 can push the main top rod 114 to move. It should be determined according to the actual design and needs. Selecting a suitable coaxial connection method is not only related to the response speed and control accuracy of the electromagnetic tripping device, but also directly affects its long-term operating reliability and maintenance cost. When designing the operating mechanism of a high-voltage DC switch, the impact of the top rod connection method on the overall performance should be fully considered to ensure that the switch can operate stably and reliably in a high-voltage DC environment. At the same time, by optimizing the connection method, the efficiency of the electromagnetic tripping device can also be improved, energy consumption can be reduced, and the overall performance of the entire high-voltage DC switch system can be improved.

The control coil mounting mechanism includes: at least one adapter plate 151, a plurality of support rods 155 and at least one control coil mounting plate 157.

[0103] like Figure 8 and Fig.10As shown, the adapter plate 151 is disposed on the main coil mounting plate 130 and extends outward from the main coil mounting plate 130, and a plurality of first holes 153 are disposed on the adapter plate 151.

At least one control coil mounting plate 157, the control coil 120 is mounted on the control coil mounting plate 157, the control coil mounting plate 157 is provided with a second through hole 158 allowing the control push rod 124 to pass through, the control coil mounting plate is provided with a plurality of second holes 159, each support rod 155 installs the control coil mounting plate 157 at a mounting position on the plurality of support rods 155 through one of the plurality of second holes 159, and wherein the mounting position allows the control push rod 124 to drive the main push rod 114 to move from the main push rod retracted position to the main push rod extended position during the process of moving from the control push rod retracted position to the control push rod extended position.

[0104] Figure 6 The detailed design of the control coil installation mechanism, a key component of the electromagnetic tripping device 10 in this application, is shown. This is an important structure to ensure that the control coil 120 can be accurately positioned and effectively trigger the action of the main push rod 114. Specifically:

[0105] The main coil 110 is fixed on the main coil mounting plate 130, and the main coil mounting plate 130 includes a first through hole 131, which allows the main push rod 114 to freely pass through under the action of electromagnetic force to achieve its movement from the retracted position to the extended position. The control coil mounting mechanism is composed of at least one adapter plate 151, a plurality of support rods 155 and at least one control coil mounting plate 157, which is intended to fix the control coil 120 in a precise axial position relative to the main coil 110 to ensure independent operation and mutual coordination of the two coils.

[0106] The adapter plate 151 is fixed on the main coil mounting plate 130, and extends outside the device and is provided with a plurality of first holes 153. These holes are used to install the support rods 155, provide support points for the control coil 120, and ensure that the control coil can be stably arranged coaxially with the main coil.

[0107] Each support rod 155 is mounted on the adapter plate 151 through one of the first holes 153, extending from the adapter plate toward the control coil, supporting the control coil mounting plate 157, and ensuring the fixation and stability of the control coil. It should be understood that the number of support rods 155 and first holes 153 can be arbitrary, as long as a stable coil mounting position can be provided for the control coil mounting mechanism. In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the number of support rods 155 and first holes 153 can be 3, 4, 5 or more, and the number of first holes 153 can be more than the number of support rods 155, thereby providing multiple mounting positions for mounting the support rods 155 and achieving a more stable installation.

[0108] The number and shape of the adapter plates 151 can adopt a variety of optional solutions, which provide installation positions for multiple support rods 155. Figure 6 As shown, two long strip-shaped plates are respectively arranged on both sides of the main coil mounting plate 130. The adapter plates 151 can also be more, such as 3, 4 or more plates, extending outward from the main coil mounting plate 130, and having a plurality of first holes 153 for mounting a plurality of support rods 155.

[0109] In addition, the number of adapter plate 151 may be one. Figure 7 Schematic diagram of an adapter plate of an electromagnetic tripping device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 As shown, the adapter plate 151 is a frame-shaped single plate with a plurality of first holes 153 formed thereon, and the hollow structure allows the ejector rod to pass through.

[0110] The control coil mounting plate 157 is provided with a control coil 120, and a second through hole 158 is provided to allow the control top rod 124 to pass through to realize its movement. In addition, there are multiple second holes 159 on the control coil mounting plate 157, which are connected to the support rods 155 through these holes to ensure the stable installation of the control coil mounting plate. Similar to the adapter plate 151, the number and shape of the control coil mounting plate 157 can adopt a variety of optional schemes, which provide installation positions for the control coil 120 and installation positions for multiple support rods 155. The control coil mounting plate 157 is as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, two long strip-shaped plates are installed on both sides of a base plate. The control coil mounting plate 157 can also be more, such as 4, 5 or more plates, including a base plate for mounting the control coil 120, and multiple plates extending from the base plate to the outside, on which multiple second holes 159 for mounting multiple support rods 155 are arranged.

[0111] Fig. 9 Schematic diagram of a control coil mounting plate of an electromagnetic tripping device according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application. Fig. 9As shown, the control coil mounting plate 157 is a single plate on which a plurality of first holes 153 are provided, and a hollow structure (second through hole 158) allows the ejector pin to pass through.

[0112] The design of the control coil mounting mechanism ensures that the control coil 120 can be accurately mounted at the desired axial position, coaxial with the main coil 110, while allowing effective linkage between the control top rod and the main top rod. The stability, accuracy and reliability of this structure are the key to the design of the electromagnetic release in the high-voltage DC switch operating mechanism, which can ensure the stable and reliable operation of the switch in the high-voltage DC environment and meet the grid customers' countermeasure requirements for high reliability and independent operation of the electromagnetic release.

[0113] like Fig.10 As shown, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, a control coil mounting plate supporting portion 171 is provided on the support rod 155, and at least one of the multiple support rods 155 is provided on one side of the control coil mounting plate 157 of the adapter plate 151 for supporting the control coil mounting plate 157, and the support rod 155 passes through the second hole 159, and the support rod 155 is provided with a thread at one end of the control coil mounting plate 157, and the control coil mounting plate 157 is fixed to the control coil mounting plate supporting portion 171 via a bolt 173 via a thread.

[0114] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the control coil installation mechanism of the electromagnetic trip device 10 is designed to ensure that the stacked coil structure of the non-shared core can work stably and reliably. A control coil mounting plate supporting portion 171 is provided on the support rod 155. This design plays a supporting role between the adapter plate 151 and the control coil mounting plate 157, ensuring that the control coil mounting plate can be stably installed in the desired position. The control coil mounting plate supporting portion 171 is located on the support rod 155 and is in close contact with one side of the control coil mounting plate 157, forming a support for the control coil mounting plate. The support rod 155 passes through the second hole 159 on the control coil mounting plate, ensuring a stable connection between the control coil mounting plate and the support rod.

[0115] One end of the support rod 155 is also designed with a thread, which provides a mechanism for fixing the control coil mounting plate 157. The control coil mounting plate 157 is fixed to the control coil mounting plate supporting portion 171 through a bolt 173 connected to the thread on the support rod 155. This threaded connection not only ensures the stability of the mounting plate, but also facilitates subsequent adjustments.

[0116] like Fig.10As shown, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the electromagnetic tripping device 10 also includes an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the axial relative position between the main coil 110 and the control coil 120, wherein the adjustment mechanism includes: at least one gasket 175, which is sleeved on the support rod 155 between the control coil mounting plate 157 and the control coil mounting plate supporting portion 171.

[0117] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the control coil mounting plate receiving portion 171 is capable of axially moving on the support rod 155 through threads.

[0118] The electromagnetic trip device 10 further includes an adjustment mechanism, the purpose of which is to achieve axial relative position adjustment between the main coil 110 and the control coil 120 to optimize the independent operation of the two coils. The adjustment mechanism includes at least one gasket 175, which is sleeved on the support rod 155 and located between the control coil mounting plate 157 and the supporting portion 171. By increasing or decreasing the number of gaskets or adjusting the position of the gaskets, the axial distance between the two coils can be fine-tuned to ensure that there is no electromagnetic interference between the control coil and the main coil during operation, while maintaining sufficient mechanical linkage effect.

[0119] This adjustment mechanism is further enhanced by the axial movement capability of the control coil mounting plate support 171. The support 171 is threadedly connected to the support rod 155, which means that it can move axially on the support rod, allowing for finer position adjustment. This design not only increases the flexibility of the electromagnetic trip device, but also ensures that the coil can be precisely controlled under a variety of operating conditions.

[0120] Through the above-mentioned detailed design, the electromagnetic tripping device 10 of the present application can realize efficient control of the high-voltage DC switch operating mechanism, while meeting the countermeasure requirements of power grid customers for independent coil operation and avoiding the use of resistance and capacitance loops. The independent operation and precise adjustment between the control coil and the main coil ensure the stability and reliability of the electromagnetic tripping device in the high-voltage DC environment, reduce the failure rate and cost, and are an important innovation in the design of the high-voltage DC switch operating mechanism.

[0121] Fig.11 According to another aspect of the embodiment of the present application, a DC switch device 1 is provided, comprising: a switch 20, and an electromagnetic tripping device 10 according to any one of the embodiments of the present application, which triggers the switch 20 to operate by electromagnetic force.

[0122] Fig.11The overall design of the high-voltage DC switchgear 1 described in the present application is shown, which integrates the electromagnetic tripping device 10 with the switch 20 to achieve accurate control and protection of the high-voltage DC circuit. The key to this design is the coordinated work between the electromagnetic tripping device 10 and the switch 20 to ensure that the high-voltage DC switch can respond to the electromagnetic signal and perform the opening and closing operation.

[0123] The switch 20 is the core part of the high-voltage DC switch, including a contact system for connecting or disconnecting the high-voltage DC circuit. The electromagnetic trip device 10 is installed on or near the switch 20 to trigger the switch action by electromagnetic force. When the control coil 120 in the electromagnetic trip device 10 receives current and generates an electromagnetic field, the control top rod 124 moves under the action of the control magnetic field, and finally drives the main top rod 114 to move, triggering the opening and closing operation of the switch 20.

[0124] The integrated design of the electromagnetic tripping device 10 enables the high-voltage DC switch to respond quickly to electromagnetic signals and realize instant control of the circuit. This design not only improves the response speed and control accuracy of the switch, but also ensures the stability and reliability of the high-voltage DC switch under high voltage and high current conditions, meeting the high requirements of power grid customers for the high-voltage DC switch operating mechanism. At the same time, by adopting an independent coil stacking structure with a non-shared iron core, the use of a resistor and capacitor circuit in the secondary circuit is avoided, thereby reducing the overall cost and failure rate, and improving the overall performance of the high-voltage DC switch system.
