Abstract
A method of operating a power protection system coupled between a power source and a power converter includes producing, by a controller of the power protection system, a driving signal to a cut-off switch of the power protection system to electrically couple the power source to the power converter; detecting, by the controller of the power protection system, a fault condition of the power converter while the power converter is in operation, where the detecting includes detecting, by the controller of the power protection system, that a current flowing through the cut-off switch is above a pre-determined threshold while a gate control signal from the power converter indicates an OFF state for a first current path of the power converter; and in response to detecting the fault condition, turning off, by the controller of the power protection system, the cut-off switch to isolate the power source from the power converter.
