The invention relates to an emulating device (EMU) for emulating a bimetallic strip, the emulating device (EMU) comprising a current sensor (CC) capable of measuring a line current (IP) flowing through the emulating device (EMU), the emulating device (EMU) being capable of providing a value representative of a cumulative thermal state (Eth_n) over time t, which value is referred to as cumulative thermal state (Eth_n), by recursively adding a value representative of an initial thermal state (Eth_i), which value is referred to as initial thermal state (Eth_i), and a value representative of a present thermal state (Eth_on, Eth_off), which value is referred to as present thermal state (Eth_on, Eth_off), which is determined on the basis of the line current (IP).
