- overcurrent protection devices such as fuses or circuit breakers trade, which is mounted in series with the surge arrester.
- the conventional disconnectors of the fuse type or circuit breakers are not designed to discharge lightning currents. This can result in an inadvertent tripping of the disconnector for current amplitudes that are actually not dangerous for the surge arrester. This leads to undesirably reduce the operating range of the arrester, correspondingly decreasing the level of protection of the installation.

- the moving electrode can be moved by a mechanism, an electromechanical relay and / or a magnetic circuit providing repulsion when the intensity of the current becomes very high. The separation of the electrodes produces an arc which limits the current flowing through the dipole and, by switching on the second connection electrode, deactivates the dipole and thus ensures its protection.

- the protection device 1 against overvoltages according to the invention is advantageously intended to be mounted between a phase of the installation to be protected and the earth.
- the protective device 1 instead of being connected bypass between a phase and the earth, is connected between the neutral and the earth, between the phase and the neutral, or between two phases (case of differential protection).
- the protective device 1 comprises a housing 2 in which is disposed an overvoltage protection component which itself comprises at least two electrodes, for example a first electrode 3 and a second electrode 4, between which an electric arc is may be formed in case of overvoltage, to discharge said overvoltage to earth.
- an overvoltage protection component which itself comprises at least two electrodes, for example a first electrode 3 and a second electrode 4, between which an electric arc is may be formed in case of overvoltage, to discharge said overvoltage to earth.
- the first and second electrodes 3, 4 delimit an inter-electrode space 5 forming a spark gap.
- the first and second electrodes 3, 4 thus advantageously form the main electrodes of the spark gap.

- device 1 in the sense of the invention is a device whose operating principle is based on the generation of an electric arc in case of overvoltage.

- the terminals 6, 7 are arranged laterally on either side of the housing 2, and each comprise a housing intended to receive a connection cable, said cable being secured to the corresponding terminal 6, 7 by screwing with the aid of corresponding screws 6A, 7A.
- Such an arrangement is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in more detail here.
- the electric current moves from the first terminal 6 (or the second terminal 7) to the first electrode 3 (respectively the second electrode 4), and joins the second electrode 4 (respectively the first electrode 3) in the form of an electric arc, to then flow to the second terminal 7 (respectively the first terminal 6).

- the device 1 comprises, disposed within the housing 2 and electrically connected in series with the protection component (which comprises the electrodes 3, 4) between the terminals 6, 7, a circuit breaker 10.
- the protection component which comprises the electrodes 3, 4
- circuit breaker 10 is electrically connected in series with the electrodes 3, 4, so that when an electrical connection is established between said electrodes 3, 4, the current flowing through said electrodes also passes through the cutter. -circuit 10.
- the circuit breaker 10 is designed to pass from a conductive configuration (shown in FIGS. Figures 1 to 3 ) in which it is capable of conducting the electric current likely to flow between the terminals 6, 7, to an insulating configuration (illustrated in FIG. figure 4 ) in which it breaks the passage of current flowing between said terminals 6, 7.
- the circuit breaker 10 is capable, in its conductive configuration, of ensuring directly by itself the passage of the electric current able to flow between the terminals 6, 7 when an electric arc is formed between the first and second electrodes 3, 4.
- the circuit breaker 10 thus forms part, when in its conductive configuration, of the flow circuit between the terminals 6, 7.
- the circuit breaker 10 is designed to interrupt the flow of current between the terminals 6, 7.
- the electrodes 3, 4 are short-circuited, as a result of a failure of the device 1, the latter will be totally electrically isolated from the installation to protect, in order to avoid any risk of degradation or fire.
- the circuit breaker 10 is of course preferably capable of detecting by itself a malfunction of the device 1 and to automatically switch to an insulating configuration when such a malfunction is detected.
- a circuit breaker designates an element which, under normal operating conditions of the device which it equips, a passing character (electrical conductor) and becomes insulating (circuit breakage) when an electrical malfunction of the device it team occurs.

- the installer protection device 1 has no particular approach to implement (other than the connection of terminals 6, 7 to the installation) to protect the device 1 in case of malfunction.
- Such a malfunction or failure may in particular be characterized by the existence of a current intensity level and / or temperature within the abnormally high housing 2.

- the circuit breaker 10 is thus formed of two fuse elements respectively interposed in the electrical connection connecting the first terminal 6 to the first electrode 3 and in the electrical connection connecting the second terminal 7 to the second electrode 4. It is of course conceivable that the circuit breaker 10 is formed of a single fuse element, for example, connected in series only between the first terminal 6 and the first electrode 3 (or between the second terminal 7 and the second electrode 4).
- the symmetrical configuration illustrated in the figures is, however, preferred.

- Said insulation gaps 15, 16 preferably have a clean breaking capacity sufficient to ensure, in the event of failure of the arc extinguishing chamber 14, the definitive extinction of the electric arc during the zero crossing of the current in the device 1 by preventing the reboot of the electric arc.
- an isolation spark gap 15, 16 with a circuit breaker. 10 proves particularly advantageous because it allows, in a particularly simple manner and without harming the protective properties of the device 1 against overvoltages, to obtain an insulating void space of predetermined size particularly important when the circuit breaker 10 is passed through. its insulating configuration, without implementing a circuit breaker 10 of significant size, which could affect the reliability of the device 1.

- isolation gaps 15, 16 thus makes it possible, in order to obtain a given isolation distance, to reduce the size of the fusible zones 12A, 13A (which contributes to making the device 1 more reliable), with respect to a device 1 which do not include an isolation spark gap 15, 16.
- the overall isolation distance obtained after triggering the circuit breaker 10 would be equal to the sum e + f + a + b to which is added the sum of the interstitial spaces separating each plate from the series of plates 19, the distances a and b respectively corresponding to the distances separating the outer plates 17 , 18 of the series 19 of elementary plates.
- the invention thus makes it possible to provide an electrical isolation function of the particularly reliable device 1, and this in a particularly simple, compact and inexpensive manner.
