Abstract
A device including a mechanism detecting a position of a neutral of a power supply source for an electrical energy apparatus, such as a battery charger of an electric or hybrid motor vehicle, and a mechanism connecting a capacitor for limiting leakage currents between the neutral and an electrically conducting structure in which the apparatus is placed. The device can be used to limit leakage current during recharging of an electric or hybrid traction motor vehicle.
