Abstract: A resistor arrangement having a first electrically conductive connection element and a second electrically conductive connection element, a first resistance element which is electrically conductively connected to the first connection element, a second resistance element which is electrically conductively connected to the second connection element, an electrically conductive intermediate element arranged between the first resistance element and the second resistance element and connected with these resistance elements in an electrically conductive manner, wherein the connection elements, the resistance elements and the intermediate element are arranged side by side in a row. The connection elements and the intermediate element on the one hand and the resistance elements on the other hand formed of different materials, wherein the material of the first resistance element differs from the material of the second resistance element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a contactor device for high voltage applications, an energy storage system comprising the contactor device and a corresponding method for controlling the contactor device. A contactor device (100) comprises at least one fixed contact (106), at least one moveable contact (108), which is configured to move between an open position and a closed position, wherein in the closed position, the at least one moveable contact (108) electrically contacts the at least one fixed contact (106), and at least one first actuator (110, 120), which is configured to reversibly move the at least one moveable contact between the open position and the closed position. The contactor device (100) further comprises at least one second actuator (202) which is configured to move the at least one fixed contact (106) into a fired position, wherein in the fired position, the at least one fixed contact (106) is permanently disconnected from the at least one moveable contact (108).
