A pyrotechnic safety element is particularly suited for use in motor vehicles. The safety element includes a conductor, a pyrotechnic unit with a pyrotechnic propellant charge, a severing member for severing the conductor, and a housing. The conductor is composed of two separate conductor parts which are joined at a joining point and are severed by the severing member when the device is triggered.
