  • Patent number: 12096577
    Abstract: A power semiconductor arrangement has a switching facility, a housing, having a load connection facility for connecting in an electrically conductive manner to an external supply line and having a first plug-in connecting facility for plug-in connecting to an external second plug-in connecting facility. The housing has a first opening through which a connecting facility for connecting the load connection facility and the associated external supply line is accessible. A cover facility for covering the first opening is on the housing so as to be mechanically movable from a first end position into a second end position and has a first locking facility which cooperates with the external second plug-in connecting facility, whereby the first opening is closed with the cover facility as long as it is in its first end position, as long as the external second plug-in connecting facility is inserted into the first plug-in connecting facility.
