A fuel circuit for a turbine engine is provided. The fuel circuit includes a fuel return valve connected to the main circuit and to a fuel tank, the valve being capable of adopting an open position in which the valve allows an excess quantity of fuel to be returned to the tank, and a closed configuration in which the return of fuel to the tank is blocked; a first hydraulic line connecting the valve to the main circuit, and including a first filter; a second hydraulic line connecting the valve to the main circuit, and including a second filter; and an intermediate hydraulic line connected to the first and second lines downstream from the filters, the first and second lines being hydraulically connected together by the intermediate line when the valve is in the closed configuration.
