Abstract: A switching device including: a body which has a first side wall and a first end wall, the first side wall being perpendicular in relation to a longitudinal direction, and the first end wall is substantially perpendicular to the first side wall; and a first fixed contact comprising an inner section and an outer section, the inner section having a thickness dimension, the outer section protrudes from the first side wall in the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: The electrical switch includes a first and a second fixed contact, and a movable knife contact including at least one longitudinal pair of blades being flexibly connected to each other, wherein the blades form, in a switching event, contact with contact portions of the first and/or the second fixed contact. Opposite surfaces of the contact portions of the first and the second fixed contact include a roughened area and the inner surface of each blade includes a protruded area or opposite surfaces of the contact portions of the first and the second fixed contact include a protruded area and the inner surface of each blade includes a roughened area.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for limiting an electrical current by using a PTC resistor being monitored by a monitor circuit. According to the invention, the monitor circuit issues a signal only after detecting the status of the PTC resistor for a defined time period after a PTC resistance change.

Abstract: An electrical monitor circuit in which star points of taps on a first and a second side of a three-phase current limiting device are voltage compared. Possible applications are combinations with electrical switches, especially for power supplying and protecting circuits for electrical motors.
