CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR ELECTRIC POWER CIRCUIT SWITCH

摘要

A control circuit for an electric power circuit switch includes: a sampling/hold circuit section configured to sample a period of a detection signal of a current of an electric power system and provide a sampled signal; a discrete Fourier transforming (abbreviated as DFT) circuit section perform DFT on the one-period sampled signal to provide a magnitude and a phase of a frequency component of the current of the electric power system; a differentiator configured to differentiate the detection signal to provide a rate of change of the current over time; and a controller to determine whether to perform trip controlling according to the magnitude of the frequency component of the current from the DFT circuit section or the rate of change from the differentiator on the basis of the rate of change of the current and the reference rate of change.
