Abstract

See full text

A three-rail power supply system includes a power supply having positive, negative, and neutral terminals, a rail system having a power supply end and a termination end, and an asymmetric resistor network. The rail system includes a positive rail, a negative rail, and a ground rail coupled to the positive terminal, the negative terminal, and the neutral terminal, respectively. The negative rail is disposed parallel to the positive rail. The ground rail is disposed in parallel to, and between, the positive rail and the negative rail, and is electrically grounded at a plurality of intervals between the power supply end and termination end. The asymmetric resistor network includes two pairs of resistors asymmetrically coupled to the rail system at the power supply end and termination end, and is configured to limit a fault current through a faulty connection in response the positive, negative, and/or ground rails experiencing the faulty connection.
