Abstract
Disconnecting device for a power line, having at least one disconnecting means which is spatially arranged between a first and a second connector when the disconnecting device is in a closed state, the disconnecting means having at least one connecting element forming an electrical connection between the connectors when the disconnecting device is in the closed state, wherein the connecting element is electrically connected to the first connector via a first contact point and to the second connector via a second contact point when the disconnecting device is in the closed state, and wherein the disconnecting means is arranged in such a way that a breakdown voltage between the first and the second connector when the disconnecting device is in an open state is greater than between the first connector and the first contact point of the connecting element and/or between the second connector and the second contact point of the connecting element.
