AI Technical Summary
After prolonged use, existing residual current circuit breakers experience changes in resistance due to friction and oxidation, leading to abnormal sensitivity of the overvoltage detection module and affecting detection performance.
An adjustable resistor is introduced between the zero-sequence current transformer and the overvoltage detection circuit. The sensitivity of the overvoltage detection circuit can be adjusted by changing the resistance value. This can be achieved by using a potentiometer or a combination of multiple resistors and switches to flexibly adjust the resistance value.
This extends the service life of the residual current circuit breaker module, ensures that the sensitivity of overvoltage detection remains stable during long-term use, and avoids detection failure caused by changes in sensitivity.
