Abstract: An operating state monitoring device for monitoring a connecting cable, the device may include a connecting cable and at least two Hall sensors. The connecting cable may have at least two electroconductive conductors that extend along a longitudinal central axis, and through each of the conductors current flows or currant can flow by forming a magnetic field. The at least two Hall sensors may be configured to detect magnetic fields and output measuring signals based on detected magnetic fields. The device may have a number of Hall sensors that is identical to the number of conductions. A single Hall sensor may be arranged proximate each conductor via direct contract or indirect contact.

Abstract: An inverter for an electric motor is disclosed. The inverter includes a capacitor board including at least one capacitor, at least one transistor board, and a cooling element. The capacitor board and the at least one transistor board are electrically interconnected. The capacitor board and the at least one transistor board are each aligned transversely to a longitudinal central axis of the inverter. The cooling element is pot-shaped and provides a housing of the inverter that receives the capacitor board and the at least one transistor board.
