DETECTION CIRCUIT, ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE AND CONTROL METHOD

The embodiments of the present application disclose a detection circuit, an electrical appliance and a control method. The detection circuit at least comprises: a first capacitive component, a second capacitive component, a load to be detected and a detection component; the first capacitive component and said load are connected in series to form a first branch circuit; the first branch circuit is in parallel with a second branch circuit comprising the second capacitive component; and the detection component is used for detecting a first alternating current signal of the first branch circuit and a second alternating current signal of the second branch circuit, determining a first direction of the first alternating current signal and a second direction of the second alternating current signal, and determining the type of said load on the basis of the first direction and the second direction.
