Abstract
The invention relates to a coupling for electrically and mechanically connecting medium-voltage or high-voltage components, in particular for voltages of 1 kV to 52 kV, comprising a first connecting piece for mechanically and electrically connecting a medium-voltage or high-voltage component, in particular for connecting to a complementary connecting piece of a bushing of a switchgear cabinet, and a second connecting piece for mechanically and electrically connecting another medium-voltage or high-voltage component, in particular for connecting to a complementary connecting piece of an electrical cable, wherein the two connecting pieces of the coupling belong to complementary connection types, which fit together mechanically, and comprising a low-resistance current sensing resistor, which is built into the coupling and electrically connected between the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece in order to measure a current flow between the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece.
