The disclosure relates to an electrical installation comprising a monitoring module positioned between a sensor connected to a measurement cable and first and second supply cables for the sensor. The monitoring module comprises a first transistor comprising first and second power electrodes and a control electrode, the first and the second power electrodes of the first transistor being electrically connected to the second supply cable and to the measurement cable, respectively, so that when the first transistor is in the closed state thereof, a first fault value is generated on the measurement cable. The control electrode of the first transistor is connected to the first supply cable so that the loss of current in the first supply cable, caused by the interruption of the current, automatically triggers the switching of the first transistor to the closed state thereof.

The invention relates to an electric arc detection device comprising analyzing means supplying current and voltage integration signals. The analyzing means supply current and voltage differential signals. Decision-making means comprise a disable unit supplying adaptive disable signals and comprising detection means supplying at least one decision-making aid signal according to at least one adaptive disable signal and to the current differential signal or the current integration signal. A decision-making unit supplies a trip signal according to the decision-making aid signals.

An on-board circuit breaker that includes a push-button that enables the circuit breaker to be reset by depressing it, a power supply terminal and distribution terminal, two breaking contacts, and a main bimetal strip. Thermal deformation of the main bimetal strip trips the circuit breaker. The circuit breaker further includes an actuator able to trip the circuit breaker and an electronic circuit monitoring the electric signal. The electric signal is monitored to trip the actuator when predefined particular situations are identified. The circuit breaker also includes a movable reset enable part equipped with a pin. When the circuit breaker is tripped, the reset enable part moves in such a way that resetting the circuit breaker is possible only by depressing the reset enable part before or when the push-button is depressed.
