Vehicle power control center with solid state device for controlling power transmission has semiconductor that selectively controls electrical energy transfer between first, second legs of system support depending on control circuit signal

摘要

The center (12) has a housing (30), a bus bar connected to the housing and for connection to an electrical power source, a control circuit (36) connected to the housing, a solid state device with a 3-legged system support, a semiconductor with input, output and control connections connected to the three legs and an insulator covering the semiconductor. The semiconductor selectively controls the transfer of electrical energy between the first (62) and second (64) legs depending on a signal from the control circuit.
