A fault clearing circuitry (10) is disclosed, which comprises an
electrical energy storage (12), at least one controllable switch (14) connectable between the
electrical energy storage (12) and at least one electric line (16; 16', 16", 16"'), and a
control circuit (18) configured to monitor the at least one electric line (16) for a fault and to close the at least one switch (14) if a fault is detected wherein the
electrical energy storage (12; 12') is provided for storing an amount of electrical energy dimensioned to be sufficient for releasing one or more circuit breakers or clearing one or more fuses in the at least one electrical line (16, 16', 16", 16"') in order to clear the fault, and wherein the
control circuit (18; 18') is configured to close the at least one switch (14; 14', 14",14"') if a fault is detected such that a discharging of the electrical energy stored in the electrical
energy storage (12; 12') causes a
current pulse injected in the at least one electrical line (16,16', 16", 16"') so that a higher current in the at least one electrical line (16, 16', 16", 16"') is incurred for a limited time span, wherein the time limited higher current may release the one or more circuit breakers or clear the one or more fuses in the at least one electrical line (16, 16', 16", 16"').
