Abstract

The electrical installation switching device has two housing halves consisting of housing (1), connection units for electrical connection with bus bars or power lines and an electrical switching contact. An AC blower device is provided, that has two iron plates in lateral direction on the adjacent pre-chamber. The housing wall has an opening in the region of iron plate, by which a permanent magnet is insertable for establishment of alternating current or direct current-blower device supported in AC or DC operation of the arc load guidance.
