Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2008034396A1] The invention relates to an adapter for producing an electrically conductive connection between at least one main current path of a switching device and an evaluation unit for determining the state of a protective apparatus, which is connected upstream of the switching device. In order to make it possible to monitor a protective apparatus which is connected upstream of the switching device with minimum wiring complexity, the invention proposes an adapter for producing an electrically conductive connection between at least one main current path of a switching device and an evaluation unit for determining the state of a protective apparatus which is connected upstream of the switching device, wherein the adapter can be connected mechanically to the switching device and has contact interfaces for connection of the evaluation unit. As a result of the direct evaluation of the switching state of the protective organ on the switching device, the wiring which until now has been necessary for an additional auxiliary switch on the protective device is dispensed with, a possible fault source also being minimized with the wiring complexity.
