    Abstract: A leakage current protection plug includes a body formed by a top cover and a base, a moving assembly disposed in the body, and output wires. The moving assembly includes a control circuit board, and a detector assembly and a trip assembly disposed on the control circuit board, wherein power input insertion plates and power output moving contact arms are assembled with the moving assembly. Each output moving contact arm is formed integrally and fixed to the detector assembly, and the output ends of the output moving contact arms are directly connected to the output conductor wires. The device has a simple overall structure and can be reliably assembled. By using integrally formed output moving contact arms to directly couple the input and output, it improves the accuracy of the leakage current detection parameters, reduces internal transfers and solder points, and reduces the size and cost of the plug.

    Abstract: A leakage current detection and protection device, and power connector and electrical appliance employing the same. The device includes: a leakage current detection module which detects a leakage current on the power lines to generate a leakage fault signal; a self-test module which periodically generates a simulated leakage current and outputs a self-test fault signal when the leakage current detection module is faulty; a trip module, including a switch coupled between the input and output ends of the power lines, and a first trip coil which drives the switch; a drive module which drives the trip module to disconnect the electrical connection between the input and output ends in response to the leakage fault signal and/or the self-test fault signal; and a trip function detection module which generates a trip coil fault signal in response to detecting an open circuit in the first trip coil to disconnect the electrical connection.
