ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a system of several circuit-breakers controlling separate circuits fed by the same generator and in which the circuit-breakers are provided with a main cut-out chamber (C.sub.1, C.sub.2) in parallel with a series connection of an auxiliary cut-out chamber (E.sub.1, E.sub.2) and of a resistor (R.sub.1, R.sub.2). An operating sequence opens firstly the main chambers (C.sub.2) of all the circuit-breakers of circuits not affected by a failure, then, successively, the main chamber (C.sub.1) and the auxiliary chamber (E.sub.1) of the circuit-breaker of the circuit affected by the failure, and, lastly, closes the main chambers (C.sub.2) of the circuit-breakers of the circuits not affected by the failure.
