Abstract: A switching arrangement has a plurality of at least two contact arrangements and a blasting arrangement for blasting the contact arrangements with insulation gas. The at least two contact arrangements each have a first contact piece and a second contact piece which can be moved relative to one another in order to form an electrical connection when the first contact piece and the second contact piece are in contact and to form an insulation zone when the contact pieces are isolated from one another. The blasting arrangement has at least two blowing volumes, wherein a first contact arrangement can be supplied with insulation gas by a first blowing volume and wherein a second contact arrangement can be supplied with insulation gas by a second blowing volume.

Abstract: An electrical switching device includes a switching path and a flow device with a control valve. By way of the flow device, a fluid can flow on the switching path. The control valve additionally has a valve body. The valve body is pressed into a sealing position by the flow pressure of the flowing fluid.

Abstract: A ventilation arrangement has a ventilation channel with a mouth opening and a first shielding hood shielding the mouth opening. The ventilation channel widens and/or narrows in cross section towards the mouth opening. The mouth opening is encompassed by the first shielding hood, leaving free a gap.

Abstract: An electrical switching device includes a first switching contact piece and a second switching contact piece. The switching contact pieces can be displaced in relation to each other. The first switching contact piece is surrounded by a fluid flow guiding device. An enveloping contour of a flow duct, disposed between the fluid flow guiding device and the first switching contact piece, is greater at its end facing the second switching contact piece than an enveloping contour of the first switching contact piece at its end facing the second switching contact piece.

Abstract: A snap-action drive for a switching device has an energy store, a swinging movable part and a securing device for the movable part. The securing device secures a position of the swinging movable part by a force effect, wherein a reversal of direction of the movable part takes place counter to the force effect.
