Abstract: A control system for an electrical load, which control system is intended to receive a voltage supplied by a mains electricity supply and includes a control switch, which is designed to take an open state or a closed state, a signalling indicator connected in parallel with the switch and designed to take two different states that are each linked to the open state or the closed state of the switch, a control device connected to the signalling indicator and designed to limit a voltage on the terminals of the electrical load below a threshold value when the switch is in the open state.

Abstract: A bistable electromagnetic actuator comprising a magnetic circuit comprising a magnetic yoke in which a shunt extends perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of said yoke and comprising a permanent magnet positioned between a first surface of the yoke and the shunt. A plunger core is fitted with axial sliding between a latched position and an unlatched position. A coil extending between the shunt and a second surface of the yoke is designed to generate a first magnetic control flux to move the plunger core from an unlatched position to a latched position. A second magnetic control flux enables the plunger core to move from the latched position to the unlatched position by the action of a return spring.
