#CMT# # / CMT# The switch (S) has a switching mechanism configured to separate switching contacts to open a switch, a measurement
transformer arranged at a conductor and configured to generate an analog measurement
voltage corresponding to the
alternating current. An input of a monoflop (M1,M2,M3) is connected to a pole of a power converter (2a,2b,2c). The
transducer voltage of the monoflop is set such that a predetermined period is provided up to reset of the monoflop and that the level at an output of the monoflop is used for checking the function of the power converter. #CMT# : # / CMT# An independent claim is included for a method for testing a power converter of a power supply of a switch. #CMT#USE : # / CMT# Switch, particularly
circuit breaker, for
low voltage for interrupting an
alternating current flowing through a conductor, and distributing the current in electrical
switchgear. #CMT#
ADVANTAGE : # / CMT# The switch has an input of a monoflop, which is connected to a pole of a power converter , where
transducer voltage of the monoflop is set such that a predetermined period is provided up to reset of the monoflop and that the level at an output of the monoflop is used for checking the function of the power converter, and hence protects electrical
switchgear, prevents damage of electrical
switchgear, and ensures reliable operation of switch. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : # / CMT# The drawing shows a
