Abstract

L'invention concerne un coupe-circuit électronique comprenant un élément de commutation pour la mise hors-circuit et/ou la limitation de la consommation de courant d'un récepteur électrique. Des instructions de commande pour l'élément de commutation sont reçues via une interface de télécommande, et l'élément de commutation n'est alors mis en circuit ou hors circuit que si la charge thermique de l'élément de commutation se situe dans une zone admissible. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé pour faire fonctionner un tel coupe-circuit électronique. Il s'ensuit que dans des installations électriques, il n'est plus nécessaire de prévoir un relais propre pour des processus de commutation télécommandés.
