Abstract: A method for automatically configuring an electricity distribution microgrid includes: acquiring technical data describing properties of the microgrid, notably a topology of the microgrid, and properties of at least some of the electrical equipment connected to the microgrid, by way of a software configuration tool implemented by a remote computer server; automatically generating a set of executable software functions making it possible to automatically drive the equipment of the microgrid, by taking account of the properties of the microgrid acquired by the configuration tool; and automatically installing the software functions generated on an electronic controller belonging to a microgrid control system, the controller being connected to the equipment via a communication link.

Abstract: A method for protecting the execution of a software module having at least one protected function, the method including: obtaining a digital identifier of the electronic controller; calculating, by way of a calculation function contained in the software module, a digital signature on the basis of the digital identifier; comparing the calculated digital signature with a predefined signature stored in the software module; authorizing the execution of the protected function if the calculated digital signature corresponds to the predefined digital signature, and declining to execute the protected function if the calculated digital signature does not correspond to the predefined digital signature.
