| 20120069476 | Thermally protected resettable GFCI - An improved GFCI monitors the balance of current passing through the device, and as long as the difference between current coming in and going out stays within a given range, normally 5 ma, the device remains in the active setting. If sensed current does not remain in balance, or within the given range, a voltage source is generated, signaling the comparator/controller to trip a solenoid. A solenoid trip results in disconnection of both line and neutral on the face contacts, with power being shut off to the load, and with the load terminals disconnecting all receptacles downstream. A mechanical or electronic switch, being located across the SCR, is activated by a thermal sensor detecting abnormal temperatures, which may also trigger the solenoid, in addition to it being triggered when leakage is detected. The sensors can be placed directly on to the surfaces to be monitored for maximum heat transfer. | 03-22-2012 |
