A lubrication system for a mechanical system, the lubrication system comprising a main tank, a reserve tank and a main lubrication circuit. The main lubrication circuit comprises, in particular, a pump drawing in the lubricating liquid from the main tank via a main suction point and a main suction pipe connecting the main suction point to the pump. The reserve tank is supplied with lubricating liquid either directly from the main tank or via the main lubrication circuit. The reserve tank is connected to the main suction pipe via an outlet pipe and the reserve tank is located above the main suction point so that the lubricating liquid flows through the outlet pipe to the main suction pipe by gravity.
