REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTION DEVICE
A reverse polarity protection device includes a protection unit, a detection unit, and a control unit electrically connected between a power supply device and a load device. The detection unit is electrically connected to the power supply device for detecting the polarity of an output signal of the power supply device, and the control unit is electrically connected to the detection unit and the protection unit.
