Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of parasitic circuit detection technology, and more particularly to a device for detecting parasitic circuits. Background Technology
[0002] Parasitic loops are strictly prohibited in secondary circuits. Current technology typically checks for parasitic loops by disconnecting the circuit breaker and using a multimeter to measure the voltage at the positive and negative terminals of the circuit breaker. However, secondary circuits are complex and may have two power supply points close to each other. For example, different contacts of a circuit breaker auxiliary switch may have control power or signal power. When two contacts are close together, induced voltage may be present. Therefore, the method of disconnecting the circuit breaker and measuring the potential cannot determine whether the voltage is generated by a parasitic loop or by induced voltage, thus making it impossible to accurately determine whether a parasitic loop actually exists in the secondary circuit. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Based on this, it is necessary to address the technical problem that existing technologies may not be able to accurately determine whether a parasitic circuit exists in the secondary circuit if induced electricity is present, and propose a parasitic circuit detection device.
[0004] A parasitic circuit detection device, comprising a capacitor input module and a main control module;
[0005] The capacitor input module includes at least two capacitors connected in parallel, and each capacitor can be connected to the circuit under test or disconnected from the circuit under test through different capacitor lines.
[0006] The main control module is connected to the circuit under test and the capacitor input module respectively, and is used to detect the voltage at two voltage detection points of the circuit under test after the circuit breaker of the circuit under test is disconnected and before the capacitor is connected.
[0007] The main control module is also used to control the capacitors in the capacitor input module to be connected to the circuit under test through different capacitor lines in sequence, and to detect the voltage of two voltage detection points for each capacitor connected. The capacitor line of each capacitor is connected to the circuit under test through two voltage detection points.
[0008] The main control module is also used to determine whether there is a parasitic loop in the circuit under test based on the voltage changes at the two voltage detection points.
[0009] The parasitic loop detection device provided in this application can automatically connect different numbers of capacitors sequentially and detect the voltage at the voltage detection point before and after connecting the capacitors, as well as after connecting different numbers of capacitors. Based on the voltage changes at the voltage detection point, it determines whether a parasitic loop exists in the secondary circuit or the circuit under test. This application can accurately distinguish between parasitic crosstalk and induced crosstalk, eliminate interference from induced crosstalk, and accurately determine the existence of parasitic loops. It requires no manual wiring, saving time and effort, and can be applied to the detection of parasitic loops in various secondary circuits. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the existing technology of disconnecting the circuit breaker to measure the potential; such as... Figure 2 As shown, the power supply points A and B are close together, which may induce current. Disconnecting the circuit breaker for power supply B creates capacitance C1 between A and B, and capacitance C2 between B and ground. A voltage can still be detected on B. If this voltage is known to be induced, B can be shorted to ground. However, in reality, it's difficult to determine whether this voltage is induced or from a parasitic loop. If it's a parasitic loop, shorting B to ground rashly will cause a grounding fault and an accident.
[0023] Therefore, existing technology cannot confirm whether the voltage detected by circuit B after disconnecting the circuit breaker is an induced voltage or a parasitic loop current, while ensuring line safety. In other words, it cannot determine whether a parasitic loop exists.
[0024] In addition, the existing method of measuring potential by disconnecting the circuit breaker requires staff to check against the drawings, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient.
[0025] Therefore, it is necessary to design a parasitic circuit detection device to detect whether there is a parasitic circuit on the secondary circuit.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, a parasitic circuit detection device is provided, which includes a capacitor input module 10 and a main control module 20.
[0027] The capacitor input module 10 includes at least two capacitors connected in parallel, and each capacitor can be connected to the circuit under test 30 or disconnected from the circuit under test 30 through different capacitor lines.
[0028] The main control module 20 is connected to the circuit under test 30 and the capacitor input module 10 respectively, and is used to detect the voltage at two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 after the circuit breaker of the circuit under test 30 is disconnected and before the capacitor is connected.
[0029] The main control module 20 is also used to control the capacitors in the capacitor input module 10 to be connected to the circuit under test 30 through different capacitor lines, and to detect the voltage of two voltage detection points for each capacitor connected. The capacitor line of each capacitor is connected to the circuit under test 30 through two voltage detection points.
[0030] The main control module 20 is also used to determine whether there is a parasitic circuit in the circuit under test 30 based on the voltage changes at the two voltage detection points.
[0031] Specifically, the capacitor input module 10 includes at least two capacitor lines, each including one capacitor, with the capacitors in different lines connected in parallel. The capacitor in each line can be connected to or disconnected from the circuit under test 30. More specifically, each capacitor line can be equipped with a switch, which controls whether the capacitor in that line is connected to the circuit under test 30 by opening and closing the switch.
[0032] In this embodiment, the main control module 20 automatically controls the connection or disconnection of capacitors in the capacitor input module 10. Furthermore, only one capacitor is connected to the test circuit 30 at a time. The main control module 20 can sequentially control different capacitors to connect to the test circuit 30 one by one. For example, it can first control the capacitor of the first capacitor line to connect to the test circuit 30, and after a certain period of time, control the capacitor of the second capacitor line to connect to the test circuit 30, and after another certain period of time, control the capacitor of the third capacitor line to connect to the test circuit 30, and so on.
[0033] It should be noted that as capacitors are added, existing capacitors do not need to be disconnected. Therefore, the number of capacitors connected to the circuit under test 30 increases gradually.
[0034] Before the capacitor is connected, the circuit under test 30 has a capacitance to ground. If the capacitor is connected to the circuit under test 30, the connected capacitor will be connected in parallel with the capacitance to ground of the circuit under test 30 when the circuit breaker is disconnected. Therefore, the connection of the capacitor is equivalent to increasing the capacitance to ground of the circuit under test 30.
[0035] Figure 3 This is a partial schematic diagram of the capacitor input module 10 in one embodiment; Figure 4 This is a partial schematic diagram of the capacitor input module 10 in one embodiment; see reference. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The power supply point A is close to the power supply point B of the circuit under test 30. When the power supply circuit breaker of circuit B is disconnected, capacitance C1 is generated between A and B, and capacitance C2 is generated between B and ground. A capacitor transfer module 10 is connected between the power supply point B of the circuit under test 30 and ground. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The capacitor input module 10 has three capacitors, Ca, Cb, and Cc. Each capacitor can be connected to two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 through different capacitor lines by switching on and off. After the capacitors are connected to the circuit under test 30, it is equivalent to increasing the capacitance of the circuit under test 30 to ground.
[0036] certainly, Figure 3 and Figure 4This is merely an illustrative example. The number of operable capacitors included in the capacitor input module 10 may be 2, 3, 4, 6, or other numbers, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0037] When capacitors Ca, Cb, and Cc are connected to or connected to the circuit under test 30, they are equivalent to being connected in parallel with the initial capacitance to ground C2 of the circuit under test 30, which is equivalent to increasing the capacitance to ground of the circuit under test 30.
[0038] The main control module 20 is used to detect the voltage at two voltage detection points before and after the capacitor is connected to the circuit under test 30. For example, before the capacitor is connected, the voltage at the two voltage detection points is U1. After the capacitor Ca is connected, the voltage at the two voltage detection points is U2. After the capacitor Cb is connected, the voltage at the two voltage detection points is U3. After the capacitor Cc is connected, the voltage at the two voltage detection points is U4.
[0039] The main control module 20 is also used to compare the voltage changes of two voltage detection points at different detection times, such as comparing the changes between U1, U2, U3, and U4, and to determine whether there is a parasitic circuit in the circuit under test 30 based on the voltage changes.
[0040] The parasitic loop detection device provided in this embodiment can automatically connect different numbers of capacitors sequentially and detect the voltage at the voltage detection point before and after connecting the capacitors, as well as after connecting different numbers of capacitors. Based on the voltage changes at the voltage detection points, it determines whether a parasitic loop exists in the secondary circuit or the circuit under test 30. This embodiment can accurately distinguish between parasitic crosstalk and induced crosstalk, eliminate interference from induced crosstalk, and accurately determine whether a parasitic loop exists. It requires no manual wiring, saving time and effort, and can be applied to the detection of parasitic loops in various secondary circuits.
[0041] In one embodiment, the main control module 20 is specifically used to determine whether the voltage of the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 decreases sequentially before and after the capacitor is connected, and as the number of connected capacitors increases. If it is determined that the voltage of the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 decreases sequentially, it is determined that the circuit under test 30 does not have a parasitic loop. If it is determined that the voltage of the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 remains unchanged or the change is within a preset small range, it is determined that the circuit under test 30 has a parasitic loop.
[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, after the circuit breaker is disconnected, if the voltage across B is an induced voltage, according to the capacitor voltage divider formula, the voltage across capacitor C2 is:
[0043] Vc2 = Vtotal * [C1 / [C1+C2]]
[0044] The voltage Vc2 across capacitor C2 is inversely proportional to the value of capacitor C2. Therefore... Figure 3 or Figure 4In the process, before adding Ca, Cb, and Cc, the voltage at the "voltage detection point" is measured. Then, capacitors Ca, Cb, and Cc are added sequentially. The capacitance of B to ground increases sequentially, which is equivalent to C2 increasing sequentially. If the voltage at the "voltage detection point" gradually decreases after adding the capacitors sequentially, then this voltage is the induced voltage. If the voltage at the "voltage detection point" remains unchanged, then this voltage is the series voltage of the parasitic circuit.
[0045] That is, if the circuit under test 30 does not have a parasitic circuit, but has induced current, the voltage at the two voltage detection points will gradually decrease as the capacitor is connected.
[0046] If a parasitic loop exists in the circuit under test 30, the voltage at the two voltage detection points will remain unchanged or change within a small range as the capacitor is connected.
[0047] Based on this principle, it can be determined whether the tested circuit 30 has a parasitic circuit.
[0048] In one embodiment, the main control module 20 is specifically used to determine whether the voltage of the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 decreases sequentially before and after the capacitor is connected, and as the number of connected capacitors increases. If it is determined that the voltage of the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 decreases sequentially, then based on the capacitance value of the connected capacitor, the capacitance value of the capacitance to ground of the circuit under test 30 before the capacitor is connected, and the total voltage of the circuit under test 30, it is determined whether the voltage of the two voltage detection points conforms to the capacitor voltage division after each addition of the connected capacitor. If it conforms to the capacitor voltage division, it is determined that the circuit under test 30 does not have a parasitic loop. If it does not conform to the capacitor voltage division, it is determined that the circuit under test 30 has a parasitic loop.
[0049] If it is determined that the voltage at the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 remains unchanged or the change is within a preset small range, then it is determined that the circuit under test 30 has a parasitic circuit.
[0050] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, after the circuit breaker is disconnected, if the voltage across B is an induced voltage, according to the capacitor voltage divider formula, the voltage across capacitor C2 is:
[0051] Vc2 = Vtotal * [C1 / [C1+C2]]
[0052] The voltage Vc2 across capacitor C2 is inversely proportional to the value of capacitor C2. Therefore... Figure 3 or Figure 4 In the process, before adding Ca, Cb, and Cc, the voltage at the "voltage detection point" is measured. Then, capacitors Ca, Cb, and Cc are added sequentially. The capacitance of B to ground increases sequentially, which is equivalent to C2 increasing sequentially. If the voltage at the "voltage detection point" gradually decreases after adding the capacitors sequentially, then this voltage is the induced voltage. If the voltage at the "voltage detection point" remains unchanged, then this voltage is the series voltage of the parasitic circuit.
[0053] That is, if the circuit under test 30 does not have a parasitic circuit, but has induced current, the voltage at the two voltage detection points will gradually decrease as the capacitor is connected.
[0054] If a parasitic loop exists in the circuit under test 30, the voltage at the two voltage detection points will remain unchanged or change within a small range as the capacitor is connected.
[0055] Based on this principle, it can be determined whether the tested circuit 30 has a parasitic circuit.
[0056] To ensure the accuracy of the judgment and prevent misjudgment, this embodiment adds a judgment to determine whether the voltage of the two voltage detection points of the circuit under test 30 decreases sequentially after the capacitor is added each time. If the voltage of the two voltage detection points conforms to the capacitor voltage division, it is determined that the circuit under test 30 does not have a parasitic circuit. If the voltage of the two voltage detection points does not conform to the capacitor voltage division, it is determined that the circuit under test 30 has a parasitic circuit.
[0057] Based on this principle, this embodiment can more accurately determine whether there is a parasitic circuit in the circuit under test 30, and prevent misjudgment.
[0058] In one embodiment, the capacitor input module 10 includes at least two capacitor lines to be connected and a capacitor input control circuit corresponding to each capacitor circuit.
[0059] Each capacitor circuit includes a capacitor, a protective resistor and a fuse connected in series with the capacitor, and at least one control switch; and the capacitors in the capacitor circuits are connected in parallel.
[0060] One end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point, and the other end of the fuse is connected to one end of a capacitor, or the other end of the fuse is connected to one end of a capacitor via an on / off control switch.
[0061] One end of the protective resistor is connected to another voltage detection point, and the other end of the protective resistor is connected to the other end of the capacitor, or the other end of the protective resistor is connected to the other end of the capacitor through an on / off control switch.
[0062] The capacitor input control circuit is connected to the input control switch and the main control module 20. Under the access control of the main control module 20, it controls the input control switch to turn on so as to connect the corresponding capacitor line to the circuit under test 30.
[0063] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 4 Part of the circuit module 11 of the capacitor input module 10 is shown, and two connection methods for the capacitor lines are also shown. Figure 3 and Figure 4 This example uses a three-capacitor circuit. Figure 3 and Figure 4The circuit module 11 of the capacitor input module 10 contains three capacitor lines. Figure 3 One end of capacitor Ca is connected to one end of a fuse. The other end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point. The other end of capacitor Ca is connected to one end of a resistor via a switch. The other end of the resistor is connected to another voltage detection point. Similarly, one end of capacitor Cb is connected to one end of a fuse. The other end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point. The other end of capacitor Cb is connected to one end of a resistor via two switches. The other end of the resistor is connected to another voltage detection point. One end of capacitor Cc is connected to one end of a fuse. The other end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point. The other end of capacitor Cc is connected to one end of a resistor via three switches. The other end of the resistor is connected to another voltage detection point.
[0064] Figure 4 One end of capacitor Ca is connected to one end of a fuse. The other end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point. The other end of capacitor Ca is connected to one end of a resistor via a switch. The other end of the resistor is connected to another voltage detection point. Similarly, one end of capacitor Cb is connected to one end of a fuse. The other end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point. The other end of capacitor Cc is connected to one end of a fuse. The other end of the fuse is connected to a voltage detection point. The other end of capacitor Cc is connected to one end of a resistor via a switch. The other end of the resistor is connected to another voltage detection point.
[0065] It should be noted that, Figure 3 and Figure 4 The capacitor input control circuit is not shown.
[0066] This embodiment uses a capacitor input control circuit to flexibly and in time-segment control the connection of one or more capacitor lines to the circuit under test 30.
[0067] In one embodiment, the capacitor input module 10 further includes a manual input control module electrically connected to the capacitor circuit.
[0068] The manual input control module is used to receive and connect the capacitor line specified by the user to the circuit under test 30 according to the user's manual operation.
[0069] Specifically, the capacitor input control circuit mentioned above can be automatically controlled by the main control module 20, thereby realizing automatic control of capacitor input and voltage detection.
[0070] This embodiment also provides a manual connection control module, which allows users to manually control whether the capacitor is connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0071] It should be noted that the capacitor input control circuit mentioned above and the manual input control module of this embodiment are two independent control modules. Both can control whether the capacitor line is connected to the circuit under test 30. The two do not conflict or exclude each other.
[0072] More specifically, the manual control module may include DIP switches. Manually operating the DIP switches can independently control the connection of each capacitor line to the circuit under test 30, or disconnect the capacitor line from the circuit under test 30.
[0073] In addition, if the manual input control module is used, the user can also manually use voltage measuring tools such as a multimeter to measure the voltage at the two voltage detection points.
[0074] Figure 5 Here is a circuit diagram of capacitor input module 10 in one embodiment; see reference. Figure 5 The first terminal of capacitor C44 can be connected to the first voltage detection point via DIP switch SW2, fuse F2, and terminal JP6. The second terminal of capacitor C44 can be connected to the second voltage detection point via resistor U17 and terminal JP6.
[0075] Since the DIP switch SW2 can be switched on and off, by controlling the on and off of contacts 1 and 6 of the DIP switch SW2, it is possible to control whether the first terminal of capacitor C44 is connected to the first voltage detection point, and thus control whether capacitor C44 and the capacitor line it is connected to are connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0076] Similarly, the first terminal of capacitor C45 can be connected to the first voltage detection point via DIP switch SW2, fuse F2, and terminal JP6. The second terminal of capacitor C45 can be connected to the second voltage detection point via resistor U17 and terminal JP6.
[0077] Since the DIP switch SW2 can be switched on and off, by controlling the on / off state of contacts 2 and 5 of the DIP switch SW2, it is possible to control whether the first terminal of capacitor C45 is connected to the first voltage detection point, and thus control whether capacitor C45 and the capacitor line it is connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0078] The first terminal of capacitor C46 can be connected to the first voltage detection point via DIP switch SW2, fuse F2, and terminal JP6. The second terminal of capacitor C46 can be connected to the second voltage detection point via resistor U17 and terminal JP6.
[0079] Since the DIP switch SW2 can be switched on and off, by controlling the on and off of contacts 3 and 4 of the DIP switch SW2, it is possible to control whether the first terminal of capacitor C46 is connected to the first voltage detection point, and thus control whether capacitor C46 and the capacitor line it is connected to are connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0080] For example, the DIP switch SW2 can be an SMQS-03R-TP DIP switch.
[0081] This embodiment adds a manual input control module, which allows for more flexible user control of capacitor connection, realizing dual control of capacitor connection and human-computer interaction.
[0082] In one embodiment, the input control switch is a relay switch;
[0083] The capacitor input control circuit is specifically used to connect the corresponding capacitor line to the circuit under test 30 by controlling the relay switch to activate the relay.
[0084] Specifically, in this embodiment, each capacitor circuit corresponds to a relay switch, see reference. Figure 3 By controlling the first relay switch to close, capacitor Ca can be connected to the circuit under test 30. With the first relay switch closed, controlling the second relay switch to close will connect capacitor Cb to the circuit under test 30. With both the first and second relay switches closed, controlling the third relay switch to close will connect capacitor Cc to the circuit under test 30.
[0085] refer to Figure 4 By controlling the first relay switch to close, capacitor Ca can be connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0086] By controlling the closing of the second relay switch, capacitor Cb can be connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0087] By controlling the closing of the third relay switch, capacitor Cc can be connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0088] When the first and second relay switches are closed simultaneously, capacitors Ca and Cb can be connected at the same time.
[0089] When the first, second, and third relay switches are closed simultaneously, capacitors Ca, Cb, and Cc can be connected at the same time.
[0090] In this embodiment, the input control switch is a relay switch. By controlling the on / off state of the relay switch or the activation of the relay, it is possible to conveniently and flexibly control whether the capacitor line is connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0091] In one embodiment, the capacitor input control circuit includes a first switching transistor, a first resistor, a second resistor, a third resistor, and a first diode;
[0092] The first terminal of the first switching transistor is connected to the control terminal of the main control module 20 through a first resistor to receive the access control signal. The first terminal of the first switching transistor is also grounded through a second resistor.
[0093] The second terminal of the first switching transistor is connected to a positive voltage through the third resistor, and the third terminal of the first switching transistor is grounded.
[0094] The second terminal of the first switching transistor is connected to one end of the corresponding relay switch, and the third terminal of the first switching transistor is connected to the other end of the relay switch.
[0095] The anode of the first diode is grounded, and the cathode is connected to the second terminal of the first switching transistor.
[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment, the capacitor connection control circuit is a relay control circuit. Each capacitor connection control circuit is used to control whether the corresponding capacitor line is connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0097] Figure 5 Here is a circuit diagram of capacitor input module 10 in one embodiment; see reference. Figure 5 The capacitor input control circuit corresponding to capacitor C44 includes a first switch Q1, a first resistor R30, a second resistor R27, a third resistor R25, and a first diode D7. The first terminal of the first switch Q1 is connected to the control terminal of the main control module 20 through the first resistor R30 to receive the access control signal RELAY1. The first terminal of the first switch Q1 is also grounded to GND through the second resistor R27. The second terminal of the first switch Q1 is connected to the positive voltage VCC through the third resistor R25. The third terminal of the first switch Q1 is grounded to GND. The second terminal of the first switch Q1 is connected to contact 2 of the corresponding relay switch RELAY11, and the third terminal of the first switch Q1 is connected to contact 1 of the relay switch RELAY11. The anode of the first diode D7 is grounded, and the cathode is connected to the second terminal of the first switch Q1.
[0098] The capacitor circuit containing capacitor C44 includes capacitor C44, relay switch RELAY11, fuse F2, and resistor U17. Relay switch RELAY11 is a relay; its first contact is grounded, its third and fourth contacts are connected to a normally open switch, which can be connected to either the sixth or fifth contact. The fifth contact is connected to the first terminal of capacitor C44. The fourth contact of relay switch RELAY11 is also connected to the first voltage detection point via fuse F2 and terminal JP6. The second terminal of capacitor C44 is connected to the second voltage detection point via resistor U17 and terminal JP6.
[0099] When the first switch Q1 receives the access control signal RELAY1 from the main control module 20, the first switch Q1 is turned on and switches the normally open switch of the relay switch RELAY11 to contact 5. This causes the first end of the capacitor C44 to be connected to the first voltage detection point in sequence through the relay switch RELAY11, the fuse F2 and the terminal JP6, thereby connecting the capacitor C44 and the capacitor line it is connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0100] The first switching transistor Q1 can be a transistor or a MOSFET, etc., and this application does not impose any restrictions on it. If the first switching transistor Q1 is a transistor, then the first terminal of the first switching transistor Q1 is the base, the second terminal is the collector, and the third terminal is the emitter.
[0101] The capacitor input control circuit corresponding to capacitor C45 includes a first switch Q2, a first resistor R32, a second resistor R31, a third resistor R33, and a first diode D8. The first terminal of the first switch Q2 is connected to the control terminal of the main control module 20 through the first resistor R32 to receive the input control signal RELAY2. The first terminal of the first switch Q2 is also grounded to GND through the second resistor R31. The second terminal of the first switch Q2 is connected to the positive voltage VCC through the third resistor R33. The third terminal of the first switch Q2 is grounded to GND. The second terminal of the first switch Q2 is connected to contact 2 of the corresponding relay switch RELAY22, and the third terminal of the first switch Q2 is connected to contact 1 of the relay switch RELAY22. The anode of the first diode D8 is grounded, and the cathode is connected to the second terminal of the first switch Q2.
[0102] The capacitor circuit containing capacitor C45 includes capacitor C45, relay switch RELAY22, fuse F2, and resistor U17. Relay switch RELAY22 is a relay; its first contact is grounded, its third and fourth contacts are connected to a normally open switch, which can be connected to either the sixth or fifth contact. The fifth contact is connected to the first terminal of capacitor C45. The fourth contact of relay switch RELAY22 is also connected to the first voltage detection point via fuse F2 and terminal JP6. The second terminal of capacitor C45 is connected to the second voltage detection point via resistor U17 and terminal JP6.
[0103] When the first switch Q2 receives the access control signal RELAY2 from the main control module 20, the first switch Q2 is turned on and switches the normally open switch of the relay switch RELAY22 to contact 5. This causes the first end of the capacitor C45 to be connected to the first voltage detection point in sequence through the relay switch RELAY22, the fuse F2, and the terminal JP6, thereby connecting the capacitor C45 and the capacitor line it is connected to the circuit under test 30.
[0104] The first switching transistor Q2 can be a transistor or a MOSFET, etc., and this application does not impose any restrictions on it. If the first switching transistor Q2 is a transistor, then the first terminal of the first switching transistor Q2 is the base, the second terminal is the collector, and the third terminal is the emitter.
[0105] The capacitor input control circuit corresponding to capacitor C46 includes a first switch Q3, a first resistor R35, a second resistor R34, a third resistor R36, and a first diode D9. The first terminal of the first switch Q3 is connected to the control terminal of the main control module 20 through the first resistor R35 to receive the input control signal RELAY3.
