  • Publication number: 20100208402
    Abstract: A current transformer type power limit controller is disclosed having a current transformer connected in series to the load. The number of turns of the primary winding and secondary winding of the current transformer are in ones place and thousands place respectively. The current transformer amplifiers voltage signal to charge capacitors through a voltage doubler circuit for the working of a detection and trigger circuit and a relay that switches off the load when the power consumed surpasses the set value (190W). The current transformer type power limit controller further includes a hold circuit, an error correction circuit, and a detection and trigger circuit.

  • Patent number: 7733619
    Abstract: An overcurrent breaking controller for a lamp and lantern is connected in series between AC power and a load and mainly comprises a current transformer connected to the AC power, an overcurrent restraint unit connected to the other terminal of current transformer, and a trigger control unit connected to the overcurrent restraint unit. The overcurrent restraint unit further comprises a phase delay unit and a time setting unit and thus may flicker or cut the power to give a warning signal to a user for achievement of energy conservation and for prevention of energy waste.

  • Publication number: 20090185319
    Abstract: A method of breaking an overcurrent is provided to connect an overcurrent breaking controller in series between an AC power and a load. Thus, when detecting the connected load of which the current generated with the consumed power is higher than a rated current of the overcurrent breaking controller, the overcurrent breaking controller instantly stops the load working, when detecting the current passing through the load that is lower than the rated current, the controller allowing the load to re-work. Thus, the load of which the rated current exceeds is prevented from being replaced, and automatic power shut and recovery are implemented for protection, power saving, easy installation, and energy waste prevention.
