Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of arc protection, in particular to an arc protection device capable of self-checking. Background Art

[0002] With the development of distribution networks, the number of medium and low voltage switchgear is increasing. As the carrier of medium and low voltage busbars, due to its small space, when a fault occurs, it is often accompanied by arcing and fire in the cabinet. If the fault cannot be removed in time, the rapid spread of arc light will cause serious economic and property losses. Traditional medium and low voltage switchgear generally has no special protection. When a fault occurs in the cabinet, it mostly relies on the low-voltage side backup protection of the transformer with delay to remove the fault. The delay is long, the equipment is seriously damaged, and the power supply restoration cycle is long;

[0003] Therefore, in view of the technical problems described above, there is an urgent need for a self-checking arc protection device. Utility Model Content
