The invention relates to a working method of an
optical path switching interface mechanism for an
optical fiber channel test of a
relay protection device. According to the
optical path switching interface mechanism, the power source end of a control module is connected with a
control power source, the input end of the control module is connected with a button change-over switch, and the output end of the control module is connected with a driver module; an
optical path switching module comprises two optomagnetic switches, four transmitting
optical fiber interfaces and four receiving
optical fiber interfaces, wherein the output end of the driver module is connected with the control ends of the two optomagnetic switches, and the input ends and the output ends of the two optomagnetic switches are connected with the corresponding transmitting optical
fiber interfaces and the corresponding receiving optical
fiber interfaces. The control module provides a
control signal corresponding to the connected optical
path switching module, a test instrument can be connected with the
relay protection device or an
optical power meter or an
optical attenuator through the optical
path switching interface mechanism, then the driver module drives the optical
path switching module to carry out optical path switching of the interfaces, and therefore the normal running state and the testing state of a protection test and the optical
fiber channel test can be achieved.
