Abstract
A detecting system for a load control circuit includes: a main fuse connected on a main current path between a power supply and a load that receives power supplied from the power supply; a switching element connected on the main current path between the main fuse and the load; a thermal fuse attached to a surface of the switching element and configured to open when a temperature of the switching element exceeds a preset temperature; a controller configured to control the switching element to be turned on/off, detect an open state of the thermal fuse, and generate a fault signal; and a system controller configured to interrupt the power supplied from the power supply when the fault signal is received from the controller.
