Abstract
A medium voltage switching device includes an electromagnetic actuation chain and a power supply which provides electric power to the electromagnetic actuation chain. The power supply includes at least a first power supply device which is electrically connected to a medium voltage power distribution line, so as to drain electric power directly from the distribution line, and a second circuit configured to store at least the electric energy drained from the medium voltage power distribution line, and to thereby provide the electromagnetic actuation chain with electric power.
