Perpendicular projection

Hi everyone. 

So I have this closed curve (blue curve) which I divided. I want the resulting points to get projected perpendicularly to the white curve. 
I've tried the Perpandicular frames component but it doesn't keep the same points and the projections lines are sometimes not even perpendicular to the curve. 
Here's a screenshot: 
Is there a mistake in the definition or another way to create perpendicular lines? 

Thanks.

I do not have the all the plug-ins you have installed so made a quick example. 

You could also directly intersect the planes with the curve but as the planes are infinite and the curve is closed this will produce more than one intersection per plane.

Hi and thanks for your time and help. 
I've tried the definition you posted and both options work really fine. 
Thanks a lot!
