KIND OF SELF-POWERED CURRENT SENSOR WITH SUDDEN CHANGE CURRENT DETECTION CAPABILITY USED IN LOW-VOLTAGE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

摘要

In an embodiment, a current sensor unit includes: a rectification module, to convert an AC current to a pulsed DC current; a conversion module containing an energy storage element, to store energy based upon the pulsed DC current during a charging mode and to generate a power supply current based upon a voltage of the energy storage element; a mode switching module, bypassed by the conversion module during operation in the charging mode, and bypassing the conversion module during operation in an energy release mode; a current sensor module, to detect a pulsed DC current flowing back from the conversion module or mode switching module; a control module, to acquire electrical energy from the power supply current, determine that operation is in the charging mode or energy release mode based upon the voltage of the energy storage element, and acquire a detection value provided by the current sensor module.
