Abstract

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Schalter mit einem Schaltergehäuse (1), einem Deckel (2) sowie im inneren des Schaltergehäuses (1) angeordneten, elektrisch leitfähigen Schaltkontakten (3) und einem elektrisch leitfähigen Flachkabel (4), welches durch eine Einführöffnung (5) in das Innere des Schaltergehäuses (1) eingeführt und mit den Schaltkontakten (3) elektrisch leitfähig kontaktiert ist.
Die Kontaktelemente (3) sind mit sich in Richtung des Deckels (2) erstreckenden Kontaktschwertern (6) ausgestattet, die unter Durchdringung des Isoliermantels (5) des Kabels (4) mit den leitfähigen Adern (8) kontaktieren. Im Kontaktierungsbereich ist an der Deckelinnenseite ein auf das Kabel (4) aufdrückbares Anpressteil (9) vorgesehen, welches derart weit in das Gehäuseinnere hineinragt, dass bei geschlossenem Deckel (2) das Kabel (4) fest an die mit den Kontaktschwertern (6) ausgestatteten Kontaktelemente (3) angepresst ist.
