Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a protective arrangement for inclusion in an electric installation system, especially the new arrangement is designed to prevent the cause of fire or damage to the installation due to the sudden electrical failure or rise of temperature in the vicinity of the assembly of integers constituting the arrangement.
  • the existing protective means designed for inclusion in conventional electric installations are targeted to prevent harm to civilization by electrification.
  • the conventional means do not consider at all the likelihood of damage to goods and/or premises caused by a short and likely thereby caused spark, or rise of temperature.
  • the heating up of electric wires is a common phenomenon and the consequences are well known and need no further elaboration.
  • the new protective arrangement construction is based on the recognition that harm could be prevented if, whenever the temperature rises within or at the vicinity of the new protective means, the new means would be actuated and disconnects the whole circuit from the grid. Scope of Invention
  • This object is obtained by inclusion into a constitutive portion of the respective electric system, a new component which is assigned to short circuit between "phase” and “zero” or “earth” whenever the temperature rises to a predetermined level.
  • the new arrangement relates to component such as bimetallic make and break or thermic fuse or switch and the like members of generally known type destined for different purposes.
  • Such a device could be included e.g., into a wall socket by fixedly connecting its two terminals to the "earth” and “zero” or “zero” and “phase” or “phase and earth” etc., terminals of such a wall socket.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic, perspective view of a conventional bi-metallic make - and break device.
  • Figure 2 being a frontal view thereof.
  • Figure 3 illustrates in a schematical manner the function of the device of Figures 1 and 2.
  • Figure 4 illustrates diagramatically by way of example an electric installation comprising a socket in which the new means is inserted.
  • the generally know bi-metallic make and break device comprises a box shaped casing 10 from which extend two terminal wires 11.
  • the casing includes two terminals 11' and 11" of metals of different heat expansion coefficient.
  • the terminals 11' and 11 snap towards each other the contact is closed.
  • the outlay of an electric installation comprising a main conduit 1 leading from the respective grid and feeding the systems which includes a main switch 2, making or breaking contact via a leakage relay 3 with a consumer switch 4 and a consumer line 5 leading to an electric implement, e.g. a wall socket 6.
  • a main switch 2 making or breaking contact via a leakage relay 3 with a consumer switch 4 and a consumer line 5 leading to an electric implement, e.g. a wall socket 6.
  • an electric implement e.g. a wall socket 6.
  • the bi-metallic component 7 of Figure 3 comprising the terminals 11' and 11". Terminals 11' and 11" are connected according to the example to the "earth" and "zero" terminals of wall socket 6 respectively.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de protection (10), intégré au système de l'installation électrique, et conçu pour éviter que l'installation ne subisse un incendie, au tout autre sinistre, par suite d'une coupure électrique soudaine ou d'une élévation soudaine de la température au voisinage du système. A cet effet, un composant court-circuite la phase avec le neutre (ou la terre) dès que la température dépasse un certain niveau.
