Abstract

A leakage current detection device includes a switching module coupled between power input and output terminals, for controlling the electrical connection between the input and output terminals; a leakage current detection module, including a switch driving component, configured to control the switching module based on working periods of the switch driving component and based on whether a leakage current signal is detected; and a first self testing module, coupled to the leakage current detection module, for periodically generating a self testing pulse signal as a simulated leakage current signal. The first self testing module includes: a periodic timing circuit and a self testing pulse signal generating circuit coupled to each other, where the periodic timing circuit controls the period of the self testing pulse signal. The device provides enhanced safety protection.
