Questions about Power Supply Monitoring Device: 1. How does the device detect voltage reduction in the power supply system? The device monitors voltage levels in the system to detect any reduction that may occur during operation.
2. What measures are taken to limit conduction current in the inter-system switch? The switch operation unit limits the conduction current to prevent issues caused by voltage reduction.
Original Abstract Submitted
A power supply monitoring device is applied to a power supply system. The system includes a first system having a first load and a second system having a second load. The first and second systems are connectable by an inter-system switch. The second system is connected with a power supply unit. In the first system, loads are connected in parallel as the first load, and fuses are provided to energization paths connected to the loads. The device includes a monitoring unit monitoring voltage reduction in the first system when the first and second loads are driven in a state in which the inter-system switch is closed, and a switch operation unit allowing the inter-system switch to conduct electricity in a state in which a conduction current in the inter-system switch is limited during a time period from voltage reduction, if the monitoring unit determines that the voltage reduction has occurred.
