Abstract: A method for monitoring an electric power source changeover switch, including a step of identifying all of the combinations of operating modes and availability states of the power sources, a step of associating a configuration of a state of switches with each combination, a step of watching for a change in configuration. Upon a change in configuration, a step of controlling the switches is executed in order to place the switches in a state complying with the configuration. In the absence of a change in configuration, a step monitors the compliance of the configuration with the actual state of the switches. A method further including monitoring a source changeover switch implemented in a test device, and to a source changeover switch implementing such a method.

Abstract: The method for controlling selectivity of electric equipment comprises: communication of electric equipment settings between at least one electric equipment unit and a data processing device, computation of the selectivity of electric equipment according to said electric equipment settings, storing and communication of data representative of the selectivity settings and data, supervision of changes of settings and/or of changes of equipment, and checking of the compatibility between new settings after a change and the selectivity computation. The device and installation comprise means for implementing the selectivity control method.

Abstract: Method for performing maintenance of an electric installation including at least one electric equipment unit comprising: entry and storing in a database of data representative of an electric installation to be monitored and of data representative of electric equipment settings and parameters, storing of data representative of events in a database so as to constitute an events history, detection of malfunctioning disturbances, analysis of causes of malfunctioning of the electric installation, management of restoration of operation of a part of the installation. Management of restoration of operation comprises monitoring by a decision tree to evaluate a criticality level.
