ABSTRACT:
The electronic circuit breaker comprises an input for connection to a power-supply network and an output for connection to a load. Set between the input and the output are a switch and a limitation block which controls the switch to cause at least partial inhibition thereof in the event of over-current. The circuit breaker further includes a microprocessor connected to the limitation block to inhibit power supply to the load.
