An electric protection apparatus is provided for protection against current faults of different intensities, including, in series in an internal circuit, a first switch with automatic opening, which is controlled by moderate current levels, and a second switch with automatic opening having short circuit current limiting properties; a zinc oxide voltage limiting component, which is placed in parallel across this latter, has a fairly low stabilization threshold so that diverted currents, flowing through it at the time of opening on a short circuit, extend as far as the resistive portion of the characteristic which follows the stabilization level portion. |
