Electric circuit interrupter with fail safe mode and method

摘要

The fault circuit interrupter with fail safe mode and method can include a detection circuit for determining whether an error has occurred in an exterior circuit, and an interrupter device for stopping current flow to the exterior circuit when an error has been detected. The fault circuit interrupter can also include a fail safe mode, wherein if any of the fault circuit interrupter's key electrical and/or mechanical components malfunction or are not working, the fault circuit interrupter is incapable of being reset after a trip.
