Fault isolation apparatus, direct current boost apparatus, and inverter apparatus
A fault isolation apparatus includes a controller and a circuit breaker. When the circuit breaker is located on a bus connected to a DC/DC conversion unit, if a voltage collected by a first voltage collection terminal is a negative value, it indicates that input or output of the DC/DC conversion unit is reversely connected. In this case, if the circuit breaker is controlled to be opened, the DC/DC conversion unit can be prevented from being connected in series to other parallel DC/DC conversion units. If a voltage collected by a first voltage collection terminal is low and a current collected by a current collection terminal is large, it indicates that the DC/DC conversion unit is short-circuited. In this case, if the circuit breaker is controlled to be opened, another component connected in series to the DC/DC conversion unit can also be prevented from backfeeding energy to the DC/DC conversion unit.
