Abstract: Some embodiments relate to an electric switching device, which comprises a switching contact, an actuation mechanism coupled to the switching contact and a motor coupled to the actuation mechanism. The actuation mechanism comprises a first spring, a first actuation plate coupled with the switching contact and a second actuation plate coupled with the motor. The actuation mechanism also comprises a first blocking element, which blocks the first actuation plate in a rotational blocking position and releases the first actuation plate in a rotational release position. The first spring is loaded by a movement of the motor. At some point in time, the second actuation plate or an actuating element connected thereto turns the first blocking element and thus releases the first actuation plate. As a consequence, the first actuation plate starts to move and finally actuates the switching contact.

Abstract: Some embodiments relate to an electric switchgear is disclosed, which comprises a switchgear with a switchgear housing and an exhaust channel, which passes through or connects to an opening in a housing wall of the switchgear housing. The exhaust channel comprises a narrowing and exhaust channel inlet holes, which are arranged at the narrowing and which are provided to supply fresh air from outside of the exhaust channel into the interior of the exhaust channel.

Abstract: An actuating mechanism for an electrical switching device includes a frame and a driving member. The driving member is rotatably arranged in the frame around an axis and is movable between a first driver position and a second driver position. The driving member is mechanically linkable to the electrical switching device by a first linking member. The movable contacts of the electrical switching device are in a first position in the first driver position of the driving member and are in a second position in the second driver position of the driving member. The actuating mechanism further includes an actuating member. The actuating member is rotatably arranged in the frame around an axis and is movable between a first actuator position and a second actuator position by hand or based on using a motor. The actuating mechanism further includes a load spring.

Abstract: A combination includes: an electricity conducting element and a connector cable. The electricity conducting elements includes: a body of insulating material; an electrical conductor extending through the body; at least one passive electrical sensor embedded or integrated in the body of insulating material; and at least one shielded connector with one or more terminals arranged on an outer surface of the body, the at least one shielded connector being electrically connected to the at least one passive electrical sensor. The connector cable includes: a first shielded connector with one or more terminals for connecting with the at least one shielded connector; a second shielded connector with one or more terminals for connecting with an appliance or a further connector cable; and electrical components arranged closely to the first shielded connector and electrically connected to the terminals of the first shielded connector.

Abstract: A device for medium or high voltage switching element gear, the device having: a switching element for connecting two conductors: and a driving rod for operating the switch, wherein the driving rod comprises at least a surface layer of an electrically high resistance material. The electrically high resistance material ensures that a small current will flow through the material due to the present electrical field. This small current will cause a heating of the driving rod, such that condensation is reduced or prevented.

Abstract: An electrically insulated conductor connection assembly and a method for providing the same are provided. The electrically insulated conductor connection assembly includes first and second electrical conductors each comprising a body portion and an end portion. A fastening mechanism electrically and mechanically connects the end portions of the first electrical conductor to the end portion of the second electrical conductor, and an insulator overlays and electrically insulates the fastening mechanism. The end portions of the first and second electrical conductors and the fastening mechanism form a joint, which is structured to be fastenable and unfastenable. When the joint is fastened and the insulator is overlaying the fastening mechanism, the joint is electrically insulated.
