Abstract

A method for controlling and/or protecting an actuator of a piece of mobile equipment of a building, the actuator comprising a motor, comprises the steps consisting of: (E1) providing an instantaneous signal representative of the electrical power provided to the motor, (E2) carrying out a sampling of values of the instantaneous signal, (E3) performing a control of each sampled value according to a first protection criterion of the actuator, and issuing a first piece of anomaly information for each sampled value that does not satisfy the first criterion, (E3′) acquiring a set of values from the sampled values, (E4′) performing a control according to a second protection criterion of the actuator applied to all of the acquired sampled values, and issuing a second piece of anomaly information for all of the acquired sampled values that do not satisfy the second protection criterion.
