FLUORESCENT LAMP-COMPATIBLE LED LIGHTING DEVICE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK PROTECTION APPARATUS THEREFOR

摘要

The present invention relates to an LED lighting device configured to prevent an electric shock accident which may occur in a process of separating or coupling the LED lighting device from or to a fluorescent fixture, and an electric shock protection apparatus therefor. A fluorescent lamp-compatible LED lighting device according to the present invention, which is used in a fluorescent fixture and includes a stabilizer for applying a first discharge voltage when both first and second connection terminals of a fluorescent lamp are coupled to the fluorescent fixture and applying a second discharge voltage when a first or second connection terminal of the fluorescent lamp is coupled to the fluorescent fixture, comprises: first and second connection means electrically coupled to opposite sockets of the fluorescent fixture; an electric shock protection apparatus selectively coupled to the first or second connection means; a rectifying means for rectifying external alternating current power input through the first and second connection means; an LED module having a plurality of LEDs arranged therein; and a driving means for driving the LED module on the basis of driving power provided from the rectifying means, wherein the electric shock protection apparatus electrically couples the first or second connection means to an internal circuit when the first discharge voltage is applied from the fluorescent fixture and configures the first or second connection means into a state in which the first or second connection means is disconnected from the internal circuit when the second discharge voltage is applied from the fluorescent fixture.
