    Abstract: A protective device for an electrical consumer disposed in a consumer circuit. The protective device has sensor elements for detecting an operating state of the electrical consumer, and an electronic evaluation and control unit operatively connected to the sensor elements for evaluating and controlling the operating state of the electrical consumer detected by the sensor elements. The protective device further includes a protective switch responsive to the operating state of the electrical consumer for interrupting the consumer circuit. The protective switch comprises a control circuit including a bimetallic strip and a temperature-dependent resistor for deflecting the bimetallic strip for interrupting the consumer circuit, the bimetallic strip thereby defining a deflecting direction.
