  • Patent number: 9214813
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (50) for limiting an electrical current in an electrical conductor of an electrical installation. The device (50) comprises a receiving unit adapted to receive a measurement of the electrical current in the electrical conductor, and further comprising a limiting unit adapted to limit said electrical current when the measured electrical current reaches a threshold. The device (50) is distinguished by comprising an obtaining unit adapted to obtain electrical energy from a second electrical conductor, wherein the limiting unit is adapted to inject said obtained electrical energy as an electrical current into the first electrical conductor, whereby the injected electrical current constitutes a replacement for at least a part of the first electrical current, which first electrical current is thereby limited. The invention also relates to an electrical system and a method for limiting an electrical current in an electrical conductor of an electrical installation.
