Abstract: A method and device for short circuit monitoring of a three-phase load connected to a three-phase grid, to improve short circuit monitoring of a three-phase load, the device having at least one current sensor arranged in the current path of one phase of the three-phase grid, and a processing unit for evaluating the measurement values of the at least one current sensor, having a respective port for each current sensor, to which the respective current sensor is connected via a connecting line. The processing unit is configured to detect a short circuit on the three-phase load through evaluation of the measurement values determined by the current sensor. The evaluation includes a plausibility check of the determined measurement values in order to distinguish between a short circuit and an influence on the determined measurement values by electrical and/or electromagnetic interference.

Abstract: A device (10) for the detection of current asymmetries in three-phase circuits (L1, L2, L3) is provided. This device (10) has a first current measuring mechanism (S1) for the measurement of first phase (L1) and a second current measuring mechanism (S3) for the measurement of a second phase (L3). Furthermore, the device has a computing unit (ALU) which determines a current symmetry value (N2, 3; N1, 2) of the third phase (L2) relative to the first phase (L1) or second phase (L3) from the measured first phase and from the measured second phase. Moreover, an associated method is also provided.
