A magnetic connector for connecting an electrical unit to an electrical consumer unit includes at least one magnet, a conductive metal part secured to this magnet, a connecting cable fixed to the conductive metal part, and a cap made of plastic material overmoulded on the connecting cable, the conductive metal part and the magnet, except for a contact surface of the magnet intended to make contact with a metal part of the electrical consumer unit.

Magnetic connector and group of magnetic connectors

A module for detecting an electrical fault includes a housing; a first conductor and a second conductor; a first measurement toroid, positioned around the first conductor and around the second conductor, for measuring a differential current flowing between the first and second conductors; a second measurement toroid, positioned around the first conductor, for detecting an electric arc signal flowing through this conductor; a relay; an electronic processing circuit configured to switch the relay according to the current measured by the measurement toroids. The measurement toroids are aligned with one another and the first toroid takes the shape of an elongated tube and allows the differential protection to operate with its own current.
