Abstract
An electrical network includes feed-in devices, loads, and a distribution grid, which is arranged therebetween and comprises at least one busbar and at least one device for opening or closing a DC circuit. The at least one device includes: an electric switch for opening or closing the DC circuit; a fault current detection device; a trigger unit; a precharging device; and a control unit for automatically closing the electric switch after the precharging process. The electric switch opens the DC circuit via the trigger unit if a fault current is detected by the fault current detector, and the precharging device restores the voltage on the busbar prior to closing the electric switch. Multiple loads can be individually electrically separated via a respective electromechanical switch, and multiple loads can be electrically separated as a group via the at least one device.
