Abstract
Abstract An electrical apparatus for magnetothermal and differential protection, of the type comprising a device for sensing differential currents associated with a magnetothermal protection switch, comprises a differential current sensor connected to an input of a controlled gain signal amplifier, in turn connected to a plurality of light indicators arranged to go on progressively in dependence on the sensor. The apparatus provides a quantitative and qualitative measurement of the stray current.
