Abstract: A surge arrester is proposed having at least two electrodes (14, 15; 30) and a fusible element (18; 40), which connects one of the electrodes (15; 30) to an outer terminal (12; 36) of the surge arrester, and having an extinguishing device (19, 20, 21; 41, 42), which is designed to extinguish an electric arc. A circuit is thus disconnected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a magnet armature for a contactor, a contactor and a method for switching a contactor. The magnet armature permits a reduction in the danger of adhering the contacts of a contactor, and also comprises a first spring element having a first stiffness and a second element having a second stiffness. The first spring element is deformed in the transfer from a rest position to a mid-position. The second spring element is deformed in the transfer from the mid-position to an end position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a surge arrester comprising a short-circuit device, wherein the short-circuit device comprises at least one first base element. The first base element is rigidly connected in an electrically conducting and mechanical manner to a first electrode of the surge arrester. The short-circuit device comprises at least one spring arm (6) arranged on the base element (5), wherein the free end of the spring arm has a distance to the base element, and the spring arm extends over at least two adjoining electrodes (2, 3) of the surge arrester (1).

Abstract: The contact device (30) for the electrical switch comprises a first connection element (31), a second connection element (32) and a movable contact bridge (33). Furthermore, the contact device (30) comprises at least two magnets for extinguishing arcs which arise during the switching of the electrical switch. The magnets generate a magnetic field in a first region which comprises at least one first contact region and one second contact region, in which contact regions, with the electrical switch in a closed switching position, the first connection element (31) and, respectively, the second connection element (32) are in contact with the contact bridge (33). In addition, the contact device (30) comprises one or more deflection elements which are arranged and designed to distort the magnetic field in such a way that a first arc which forms between the first connection element (31) and the contact bridge (33) and a second arc which forms between the second connection element (32) and the contact bridge (33) are forced into different directions, which extend pointing away from one another, independently of a respective flow direction in the connection elements (31, 32).
