Abstract

The invention relates to a mechanical switching contact having an insulating material support (1), on which fixed contacts (4, 5, 6) are arranged. Furthermore, a switching lever (2) is mounted such that it can rotate on the insulating material support (1) and has a pivoting arm (22). In addition, a pivotable contact housing (3) is also mounted on the insulating material support (1), which contact housing bears parallel contact fingers (9, 10), which surround the respectively connected fixed contacts (4, 5, 6) on both sides when contact is made.
