When the value of the voltage at the V0 terminal is higher than the voltage at the negative input terminal of the first voltage comparator U1 (that is, the voltage obtained by dividing the voltage of the first voltage-dividing resistor Rb1), the first voltage comparator U1 will output a high level. At this time, the first optical coupler D1 is turned on and outputs a low level signal. The low level signal generates a falling edge, thereby controlling the power conversion module 4 to stop working;

[0060] The over-temperature protection circuit 7 is connected to the main controller 1 and includes a temperature sampling resistor 71, a temperature control switch 72 and a third optical coupler 73 (such as Figure 8As shown); wherein, one end of the temperature sampling resistor 71 is connected to the internal working voltage source DC, and the other end is connected to one end of the temperature control switch 72; the other end of the temperature control switch 72 is connected to the light-emitting diode 731 of the third optical coupler 73; the photoresistor 732 of the third optical coupler 73 is connected to the main controller 1; the over-temperature protection circuit 7 is used to control the temperature control switch 72 to turn on when the temperature value collected by the temperature sampling resistor 71 is greater than the preset temperature threshold, so that the third optical coupler 73 is turned on and outputs a low-level signal with a falling edge to the main controller 1, so that the main controller 1 stops the power conversion module 4 from working; in an example, as Fig. 9 As shown, R11 is the temperature sampling resistor 71, K1 is the control switch 72, and D3 is the third optical coupler 73; at this time, when the temperature collected by the temperature sampling resistor R11 is too high, the temperature control switch K1 is closed, the circuit is connected, the third optical coupler D3 is turned on, and a low-level signal is output to the main controller 1, so that the power conversion module 4 stops working;

[0061] The alarm circuit 8 is connected to the main controller 1 and is used to issue an alarm when the main controller 1 determines that there is an insulation fault on the DC equipment;

[0062] The ground voltage sampling circuit 9 includes a positive ground variable resistor 91, a positive switching switch 92, a positive ground balanced bridge resistor 93, a positive ground voltage sampling amplifier 94, a negative ground variable resistor 95, a negative switching switch 96, a negative ground balanced bridge resistor 97 and a negative ground voltage sampling amplifier 98 (such as Fig.10As shown); wherein, one end of the positive-to-ground variable resistor 91 is connected to the positive side line L1 on the power supply circuit through a voltage transformer and is connected to one end of the positive-to-ground balanced bridge resistor 93, and the other end is grounded through a positive switching switch 92 and is connected to the other end of the positive-to-ground balanced bridge resistor 93; the positive input end (+) of the positive-to-ground voltage sampling amplifier 94 is connected to the other end of the positive-to-ground balanced bridge resistor 93, the negative input end (-) is connected to the output end, and the output end is connected to the main controller 1; one end of the negative-to-ground variable resistor 95 is connected to the negative side line L2 on the power supply circuit through a voltage transformer and is connected to one end of the negative-to-ground balanced bridge resistor 97, and the other end is grounded through a negative switching switch 96 and is connected to the negative-to-ground balanced bridge resistor The positive input terminal (+) of the negative-to-ground voltage sampling amplifier 98 is connected to the other end of the negative-to-ground balanced bridge resistor 97, and the negative input terminal (-) is connected to the output terminal, and the output terminal is connected to the main controller 1; wherein the ground voltage sampling circuit 9 is used to turn off the positive switching switch 92 and the negative switching switch 96 when the ground test signal is loaded on the positive side line L1 on the power supply circuit, and the positive-to-ground voltage sampling amplifier 94 outputs the corresponding positive-to-ground voltage signal to the main controller 1; or when the ground test signal is loaded on the negative side line L2 on the power supply circuit, the positive switching switch 92 and the negative switching switch 96 are turned off, and the negative-to-ground voltage sampling amplifier 98 outputs the corresponding negative-to-ground voltage signal to the main controller 1; or, when the grounding test signal is loaded on the positive side line L1 of the power supply circuit, the positive switching switch 92 is turned on to input the positive variable resistor 93, and the size of the positive variable resistor 93 is adjusted to make the grounding test signal of the positive side line L1 of the power supply circuit to fluctuate sinusoidally; or, when the grounding test signal is loaded on the negative side line L2 of the power supply circuit, the negative switching switch 96 is turned on to input the negative variable resistor 97, and the size of the negative variable resistor 97 is adjusted to make the grounding test signal of the negative side line L2 of the power supply circuit to fluctuate sinusoidally; at this time, when the positive switching switch 92 of the main controller 1 is turned on, if it is determined that the current sampling circuit 2 collects If the current signal obtained is a sine wave signal, it is determined that there is an insulation fault on the positive side of the DC device; or, when the negative switching switch 96 is turned on, if it is determined that the current signal collected by the current sampling circuit 2 is a sine wave signal, it is determined that there is an insulation fault on the negative side of the DC device; or, when the positive switching switch 92 and the negative switching switch 96 are both turned off, the positive-to-ground voltage of the power supply circuit is determined based on the positive-to-ground voltage sampling amplifier 94 outputting the corresponding positive-to-ground voltage signal, and the negative-to-ground voltage of the power supply circuit is determined based on the negative-to-ground voltage sampling amplifier 98 outputting the corresponding negative-to-ground voltage signal, so that it can be further distinguished that the insulation fault is located on a specific side of the positive or negative side of the DC device.

[0063] In an example, Fig.11As shown, +KM is the access point of the positive side line L1 on the power supply circuit, -KM is the access point of the negative side line L2 on the power supply circuit, R3 is the positive variable resistor 91 to ground, K1 is the positive switching switch 92, resistors R2c, Rw1 and R42 constitute the positive balanced bridge resistor 93 to ground, U1A is the positive voltage sampling amplifier 94 to ground, R4 is the negative variable resistor 95 to ground, K2 is the negative switching switch 96, resistors R1c, Rw2 and R41 constitute the negative balanced bridge resistor 97 to ground, and U1B is the negative voltage sampling amplifier 98 to ground. ① When K1 is closed and K2 is disconnected, adjust the size of the variable resistor R3 so that the positive voltage to ground fluctuates sinusoidally. At this time, the positive voltage to ground U+ increases with the increase of R3, and the negative voltage U- decreases with the increase of R3. ② When K2 is closed and K1 is disconnected, adjust the size of the variable resistor R4 so that the negative voltage to ground fluctuates sinusoidally. At this time, the negative pole to ground voltage U- increases with the increase of R4, and the positive pole voltage U+ decreases with the increase of R4. At this time, in the well-insulated power supply circuit, there is no leakage current because there is no ground fault, and the CT connected to the current sampling circuit 2 cannot detect the changing leakage current. If the negative pole of the power supply circuit is grounded, and the negative pole to ground voltage fluctuates sinusoidally, there will be a sinusoidal leakage current on the ground wire G.

[0064] It is understandable that a signal tracker can be used to track the sinusoidal grounding test signal of the power supply circuit on the positive side line L1 or the negative side line L2 in real time. If the signal disappears once the insulation fault point is crossed, the insulation fault point can be accurately located.

[0066] The electric voltage regulator 41 is connected to the external AC power source AC and is used to adjust the output voltage of the external AC power source AC;

[0067] The rectifier 42 is used to perform full-wave rectification on the regulated AC power to convert it into DC power;

[0068] The filter 43 is used to filter the clutter of the rectified DC power;
