Abstract

A device for detecting a fault current in an electronic apparatus has a first and at least one second electric conductor, the first electric conductor carrying a first electric potential and the at least one second electric conductor carrying a second electric potential. The device is characterized by the fact that an electric sensing conductor having a fixed electric rest potential whose value lies between the first and the at least second electric potential is situated between the electric conductors.
