Abstract
A method for detecting a break in connection of a neutral of a three-phase electricity network, implemented in a processing unit of an item of electrical equipment connected to the electricity network includes acquiring, at a time T, a first phase voltage (V), a second phase voltage (V) and a third phase voltage (V) measured by voltage sensors of the item of electrical equipment; evaluating a first quantity representative of a ratio between a maximum voltage and a minimum voltage from the first, second and third phase voltages; if the first quantity is greater than a predetermined threshold: evaluating, based on the first, second and third phase voltages, a second quantity; detecting a break in the neutral at the time T when the second quantity satisfies a predetermined reference criterion.
