Abstract

The invention relates to a switch cabinet with a switch cabinet door which closes the switch cabinet and has a door lock which can be actuated via a door handle, the switch cabinet door having a door status sensor which has a magnetic field sensor being adapted to distinguish an open state of the switch cabinet door from a closed state of the switch cabinet door by means of a detected magnetic field change, characterized in that at least the magnetic field sensor of the door status sensor is accommodated within the door handle in a region of the door handle which is magnetically permeable to the environment of the switch cabinet.
