Abstract

A pane arrangement having a pane with an inner surface and an outer surface, a low-E coating arranged on the inner surface of the pane. The pane arrangement having a coating-free first partition line formed in the low-E coating. A capacitive switching region is electrically isolated from a surrounding region of the low-E coating. The surrounding region surrounds the capacitive switching region in sections. The capacitive switching region has a contact region, a supply line region and a first connection region. The supply line region electrically connects the contact region to the first connection region. A coating-free second partition line is formed in the low-E coating. The surrounding region is electrically isolated from an outer region of the low-E coating. The outer region surrounds the surrounding region. A capacitive sensor electronics system is electrically connected to the first connection region of the capacitive switching region and to the surrounding region by a second connection region.
