Abstract
A method detects a high-impedance fault occurring in an electric distribution circuit that distributes a three-phase alternating current. The method includes the steps of applying a plurality of electrical signal analysis techniques that provide a plurality of fault detection indicators, and generating a signal that indicates a high-impedance fault depending on the outcome of the fault detection indicators. The method is characterized by determining a randomness of the residual current of the three-phase alternating current prior to determining the plurality of fault detection indicators, and generating a trigger signal depending on the randomness of the residual current. The step of determining the plurality of fault detection indicators requires that the trigger signal has been generated.
