[0033] Reference Figure 1The present invention provides a power strip detection device comprising a control unit, a line sequence polarity detection unit, a detection signal input switch, a detection signal output switch, and a display unit.

[0040] Combine Figure 4 and Figure 5, this embodiment describes the specific process of the socket detection device detecting the line sequence polarity of the socket to be tested. In this embodiment, the control unit is implemented by the MCU, and the display unit is implemented by the display. Specifically, when detecting the line sequence of the socket to be tested, the relays corresponding to the socket to be tested are closed in sequence, and when detecting the line sequence polarity of the live wire of the socket to be tested, by closing the first high-voltage relay K1 and the fourth high-voltage relay K4, the low-voltage detection signal VCC output by the control unit is output to the first optocoupler detection circuit U1 through the live wire of the socket to be tested, and then, when the line sequence of the live wire of the socket to be tested is correctly corresponding, the output terminal TEST1 of the first optocoupler detection circuit U1 outputs the corresponding detection signal to the control unit, and the control unit outputs the line sequence polarity corresponding detection result to the display for display; when the line sequence of the socket to be tested is misaligned, the control unit cannot receive the detection signal, and the control unit outputs the misaligned detection result to the display for display. In this embodiment, the line sequence polarity detection process of the neutral wire and the ground wire of the tested socket strip corresponds to the detection process of the live wire. During the detection process, it is only necessary to close the corresponding high-voltage relay, disconnect other relays, and receive the detection signal on the corresponding optocoupler detection circuit. It will not be elaborated here.

Furthermore, after the withstand voltage insulation tester performs a withstand voltage insulation test on the socket to be tested, the test results are transmitted to the control unit, and the control unit sends the results to the display unit to display the results.

[0042] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the ground resistance test unit includes a ground resistance tester. In this embodiment, the ground resistance tester is communicatively connected to the control unit to interface with the control unit and transmit the test results to the control unit. The first test end of the ground resistance tester is connected to the ground wire of the plug interface (i.e., the first end) of the power strip to be tested, and the second end of the ground resistance tester is connected to the ground wire of the socket interface (i.e., the second end) of the power strip to be tested. After the ground resistance tester performs a ground resistance test on the power strip to be tested, the test result is transmitted to the control unit, and the control unit sends the test result to the display unit for display.

[0043] In summary, the embodiment of the utility model provides a socket detection device. After controlling the detection signal input switch and the detection signal output switch to be closed, the control unit inputs a detection signal to the first end of the socket to be tested, and outputs a detection control signal to the line sequence polarity detection unit through the second end of the socket to be tested, thereby enabling the control unit to receive the detection information sent by the detection port of the line sequence polarity detection unit and send the detection result to the display unit for display.
