ABSTRACT:
An electrical safety barrier which is adapted to pass a current returning from a hazardous area to a safe area but which will transmit negligible energy from the safe area to the hazardous area under fault conditions has in its return channel a fuse, shunt diodes and additional diodes. These additional diodes are either conventional rectifier diodes positioned at the safe-area end of the return channel or are Schottky diodes or diodes with a low forward voltage drop positioned at the hazardous-area end of the return channel.
