Abstract
A switching apparatus for electric power distribution grids including a first switching unit having one or more first electric poles, each first electric pole being electrically connectable with a corresponding first line conductor of an electric line and including one or more solid-state switches adapted to operate in a conduction state or in an interdiction state to allow or interrupt a current flow, and a second switching unit having one or more second electric poles, each second electric pole being electrically connectable with a corresponding second line conductor of said electric line and electrically connected in series with a corresponding first electric pole of said first switching unit. The switching apparatus further includes a controller implementing a robust control logic to the operation of said first and second switching units.
