METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROTECTING AN ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION NETWORK COMPRISING AT LEAST TWO SOURCES OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY

A method and a system for protecting an electrical distribution network, the system including sources of electrical energy, loads and protection devices, each having a nominal trip timer and being configured to supply signals of detection of the presence and direction of a fault current. The system determines monitoring points and a fault condition associated with each monitoring point directly connected to several protection devices, defined by rules relating to the presence and the direction of the fault current detected by each protection device in the vicinity of the monitoring point, and, when a fault condition is confirmed, trips as a priority, with a trip timer less than the nominal trip timer, the opening of at least one of the monitoring devices in the vicinity of the fault point.
