[0022] This embodiment provides a lightning protection component tester calibration device, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the lightning protection component tester calibration device includes a varistor 1, a switch 2, a first variable resistor component 3, a second variable resistor component 4, an operational amplifier 5, an acquisition control unit 6, an HV+ terminal and an HV- terminal, the HV+ terminal is respectively connected to one end of the varistor 1 and one end of the first variable resistor component 3, the other end of the varistor 1 is connected to one end of the switch 2, the other end of the first variable resistor component 3, one end of the second variable resistor component 4 and the other end of the switch 2 are commonly connected to the reverse input end of the operational amplifier 5, the output end of the operational amplifier 5 and the other end of the second variable resistor component 4 are connected to the input end of the acquisition control unit 6, the positive input end of the operational amplifier 5 and the HV- terminal are commonly grounded, and the output end of the acquisition control unit 6 is respectively connected to the first variable resistor component 3 and the second variable resistor component 4.

[0023] Among them, when the switch 2 is disconnected, the acquisition control unit 6 performs the starting action voltage calibration and the constant current calibration on the lightning protection component tester in sequence through the HV+ terminal and the HV- terminal; when the switch 2 is closed, the acquisition control unit 6 performs the leakage current calibration on the lightning protection component tester through the HV+ terminal and the HV- terminal.

[0024] Furthermore, the lightning protection component tester calibration device also includes a simulated ignition device 7, the varistor 1 and the first variable resistance component 3 are connected to the positive input end of the operational amplifier 5 through the simulated ignition device 7, and the control signal input end of the simulated ignition device 7 is connected to the acquisition control unit 6;

[0025] The acquisition control unit 6 controls the action voltage of the simulated ignition device 7 so that the output voltage of the lightning protection component tester rises to the calibration point, triggering the simulated ignition device 7 to break down, and performing DC breakdown voltage calibration on the lightning protection component tester.

[0026] During actual use, the positive pole of the lightning protection component tester is connected to the above-mentioned HV+ terminal, and the negative pole of the lightning protection component tester is connected to the above-mentioned HV- terminal. The switch S of the lightning protection component tester calibration device in this embodiment is in the disconnected state, and the calibration device performs starting action voltage calibration and constant current calibration on the lightning protection component tester in turn.

[0027] Among them, when calibrating the starting action voltage, according to Ohm's law, the calibration point U of the starting action voltage is 1mA The calculation formula is as follows:

[0028] U 1mA =I0R1; (1)

[0029] Where, I0=1mA, based on the calibration point, the resistance value of the first variable resistor component R1 is controlled by the acquisition control unit, and the resistance value of the second variable resistor component R2 is controlled by the acquisition control unit according to the output voltage of the ADC of the acquisition control unit, and the acquisition control unit is used to collect the voltage U0, the actual value of the starting action voltage U HV The calculation formula is as follows:

[0030]

The entire calibration process does not require complicated calculations and parameter adjustments, reduces complicated wiring and calibration point settings, solves the problem of complex and time-consuming calibration of traditional lightning protection component testers, simplifies the overall circuit, saves equipment costs, and improves work efficiency.

[0041] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0045] Furthermore, the connection point between the resistor R11 and the switch S1 is used to be connected to the HV+ terminal together with the varistor U, and the other end of the resistor R14 is used to be connected to the reverse input terminal of the operational amplifier A together with one end of the second variable resistor component R2.

[0046] The acquisition control unit can be electromagnetically connected to the switch S1, the switch S2 and the switch S3 respectively, so as to realize the opening / closing control of the switch S1, the switch S2 and the switch S3.

[0047] It can be understood that when the acquisition control unit controls the three switches in this embodiment to be disconnected, the total resistance of the first variable resistor component R1 is the sum of the resistances of the resistors R11, R12, R13 and R14; when the acquisition control unit controls the switch S1 to be closed, and the switches S2 and S3 to be disconnected, the total resistance of the first variable resistor component R1 is the sum of the resistances of the resistors R12, R13 and R14; when the acquisition control unit controls the switch S2 to be closed, and the switches S1 and S3 to be disconnected, the total resistance of the first variable resistor component R1 is the sum of the resistances of the resistors R13 and R14; when the acquisition control unit controls the switch S3 to be closed, and the switches S1 and S2 to be disconnected, the total resistance of the first variable resistor component R1 is the resistance of the resistor R14. In this way, the acquisition control unit can change the total resistance of the first variable resistor component R1 by controlling the on and off of the switches S1, S2 and S3 respectively.

[0051] In this embodiment, the acquisition control unit controls the on-off of the switch S4, the switch S5 and the switch S6 respectively, thereby controlling the on-off of the branch where each switch is located, thereby changing the total resistance value of the second variable resistance component R2.

The circuit structure of the lightning protection component tester calibration device of the utility model is simple, and a simple circuit is used to realize the calibration of the lightning protection component tester, saving equipment costs and equipment assembly costs, and is worthy of promotion.
