[0002] Since LED lighting fixtures cannot be used directly on 220V or 380V AC power, they must first be stepped down. Equipment directly connected to the AC power supply may be damaged by short circuits and overload conditions caused by internal components or circuit failures in the bulb. In addition, lightning surges or load switching transients can cause voltage spikes or ring waves, which stress components and eventually cause damage, thus rendering the fixture scrapped. Given that the value proposition of LED bulbs is not only reduced energy consumption, but also longer service life, it will be crucial to consider transient voltage protection in eliminating field failures caused by electrical environments.

[0003] The size of outdoor and commercial LED lighting equipment is becoming increasingly smaller and flatter, and the requirements for the size of surge protection devices (SPD) to protect lighting equipment are also getting smaller and smaller. The outer dimensions of general lighting equipment surge protectors are limited by the size of lightning protection components and are designed to be relatively high, which is unacceptable for lamps with limited installation space. However, considering the operational safety issues of surge protection itself, to prevent fires caused by surge protectors, current products are generally temperature tripping protection devices. Therefore, it is urgent to design a small LED street light surge protector and circuit with overcurrent protection to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
