Apparatus for checking damage to surge protector and automatically changing surge protector

摘要

An apparatus for checking damage to a surge protector and automatically changing a surge protector includes a casing, a current inflow unit supplied with an external current, a current discharge unit configured to supply an inflow current to an external electronic device, surge protectors placed between the current inflow unit and the current discharge unit in parallel, selectively connected to the current inflow unit, and supplied with an electric current, a relay placed between the current inflow unit and the surge protectors and configured to selectively connect the surge protectors to the current inflow unit, and a surge protector damage check unit configured to check whether a surge protector connected to the current inflow unit has been damaged by applying a voltage between the current inflow unit and the current discharge unit.

1. An apparatus for checking damage to a surge protector and automatically changing a surge protector, comprising:
a casing of a specific shape; a current inflow unit placed within the casing and supplied with an external current; a current discharge unit placed within the casing and configured to supply an inflow current to an electronic device outside the casing; a plurality of surge protectors placed between the current inflow unit and the current discharge unit in parallel, selectively connected to the current inflow unit, and supplied with an electric current; a relay placed between the current inflow unit and the plurality of surge protectors and configured to selectively connect the surge protectors to the current inflow unit; and a surge protector damage check unit configured to check whether a surge protector connected to the current inflow unit has been damaged by supply a voltage between the current inflow unit and the current discharge unit, wherein the surge protector damage check unit comprises: a check voltage application unit connected to the current inflow unit and configured to apply a check voltage, a check voltage detection unit connected to the current discharge unit and configured to detect a voltage passing through the surge protector, and a replacement signal generation unit configured to compare the voltage detected by the check voltage detection unit with a reference voltage, generate a replacement signal for a surge protector connected between the current inflow unit and the current discharge unit if, as a result of the comparison, the detected voltage is found to be lower than the reference voltage, and supply the replacement signal to the relay 500.
