Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de coupure d'un circuit électrique ainsi qu'un coupe-circuit thermique, le coupe-circuit étant à très basse impédance et convenant pour des courants élevés, en particulier des courants de courte charge très élevés, et présentant une fiabilité élevée, en particulier dans des conditions difficiles, comme par exemple une sollicitation thermique et mécanique de longue durée. A cet effet, lors de la transition de phase du matériau de l'élément fusible (10) de l'état solide à l'état liquide, le volume de l'élément fusible (10) augmente et la pression monte et, en raison de l'augmentation de volume et de la montée de pression, l'élément fusible (10) est déplacé, la liaison électrique étant ainsi supprimée.
