Abstract

A switch comprises a first strip conductor and a second strip conductor, arranged orthogonally in a first plane. Moreover, the switch comprises a first switching conductor, having an orthogonally angled shape relative to the first plane. The switch comprises a switching actuator, which is mechanically connected to the first switching conductor and adapted to move vertically relative to the first plane to a first position and to a second position. The switching actuator is configured, so that in the first position, the first strip conductor is in contact with the first switching conductor and the second strip conductor is in contact with the first switching conductor, and so that in the second position, the first strip conductor and the second strip conductor are not in contact with the first switching conductor.
