Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008028435A1] In order to provide a power semiconductor module (2) for power distribution and transmission, having a power semiconductor circuit (18) which is connected via connecting lines (19, 20) to an energy store (11), which limits the current amplitudes that occur in the electrical fault and effectively protects the power electronics, it is proposed that the connecting lines (18, 19) have a weak point (15, 21) which breaks when the current load is above a threshold value, with the connecting lines (18, 19) furthermore having a resistance (16) which is connected in parallel with the weak point (15, 21).
