THE FIELD OF INVENTION (Gardening)
é
The present invention relates to novel design Trip Indicator used in the field of Electrical Circuit.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A protective circuit assembly configured to detect a fault condition when the sensor output signal
substantially corresponds to at least one predetermined fault criterion and generate a trip actuation
signal in response thereto. The sensor assembly provides a sensor test output responsive to the test
current only if both the differential transformer and the grounded neutral transformer are operative.
The transformer's can be substantially circular in configuration, and more particularly, ring shaped. A
trip gauge may include indicators corresponding to the relative locations of the vehicle, the
destination. A fault protection circuit disposed inside the housing, having sensing components
mounted to one side ofa first PCB.
