AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing transient overvoltage protection devices have a high risk of single-point failure due to the performance degradation of metal oxide varistors. They lack real-time status perception and dynamic reconstruction capabilities, and cannot identify and cut off the core protection components before their performance degrades, resulting in insufficient system resilience and unsustainable protection functions.

Method used

It adopts a system-level protection architecture that integrates state awareness, active isolation and dynamic reconfiguration. Through hardware cascaded control logic and multi-path redundancy design, it utilizes field-effect transistor switches and backup discharge paths to achieve non-disruptive switching before the performance of metal oxide varistors deteriorates, ensuring continuous protection capability.

Benefits of technology

It enables precise intervention in the early stages of performance degradation of core protection components, avoids latent failures, maintains the continuous effectiveness of protection functions by seamlessly switching to backup paths, reduces the risk of single-point failures, and meets the needs of modern industrial systems for predictive maintenance and fault resilience.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of circuit protection, in particular to a transient overvoltage protection device with active isolation and reconstruction functions, and discloses a system named as a transient overvoltage protection device with active isolation and reconstruction functions. The invention aims to solve the problems of single-point failure and protection interruption caused by performance degradation of the metal oxide varistor. The device comprises a main / auxiliary discharge path, a state sensing module and a central cooperative controller, by monitoring leakage current, temperature and clamping voltage in real time, the controller actively turns off a main path before element degradation and switches to a standby path at a millisecond level, and undisturbed reconstruction is realized. The scheme ensures that the protection function is continuous and effective, and system toughness and power supply safety are remarkably improved.
