More particularly, the present invention relates to a device for detecting a micro-leakage current already flowing in a pre-installed line connected to an earth leakage breaker and a method for detecting a micro-leakage current will be.
An earth leakage breaker is a device used to prevent the risk of electric shock due to a short circuit in a transformer connected to electric machinery and various electric devices. The earth leakage circuit breaker is mandatory in order to prevent the danger of electric shock and fire due to electric accident by automatically cutting the current when a leakage current (leakage current) is detected.
The current leakage circuit breaker is basically a trip circuit breaker tripped (tripped, off state) when the leakage current is 15mA or more and 30mA or less. Typical earth leakage circuit breakers and return type earth leakage circuit breakers can not detect the amount of leakage current already flowing in the installed line. More specifically, the conventional earth leakage breaker can not know the amount of leak current generated when a leak current already flowing in a pre-installed line is generated when the earth leakage breaker is turned on or off. For this reason, there are many difficulties in preliminary inspection of electronic devices and lines connected to the earth leakage breaker. If the leakage current is not known when the earth leakage breaker is off (TRIP), it may cause an accident when the earth leakage breaker is manually turned on.
In general electric machinery and various electric devices, there is a fine leakage current which is already flowing before the operation of a specific electric device. That is, even before the earth leakage breaker is installed, a minute leakage current flows in the installed machine. This leakage current affects the operation of the earth leakage breaker after installing the earth leakage breaker. For example, the leakage circuit breaker frequently shuts down due to the influence of the leakage current, which may cause problems in power supply. The automatic return type earth leakage breaker automatically returns the earth leakage breaker to unnecessary shutdown, but when a general earth leakage breaker trips unnecessarily (TRIP) (shut down), it is inconvenient ≪ / RTI >
