In this<br \/>\r\ncontext, we studied a real case of a critical zone of the Tunisian<br \/>\r\nnetwork which is currently characterized by the dysfunction of its<br \/>\r\nplan of protection. In this paper, we were interested in the<br \/>\r\nharmonization of the protection plan settings in order to ensure a<br \/>\r\nperfect selectivity and a better continuity of service on the whole of<br \/>\r\nthe network.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1] J.
