A switching device including: a body which has a first side wall and a first end wall, the first side wall being perpendicular in relation to a longitudinal direction, and the first end wall is substantially perpendicular to the first side wall; and a first fixed contact comprising an inner section and an outer section, the inner section having a thickness dimension, the outer section protrudes from the first side wall in the longitudinal direction. The first fixed contact includes a test terminal which is integral to the inner section and protrudes from the inner section in a lateral direction, which is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and an end wall plane defined by the first end wall, the test terminal having a substantially planar test terminal surface, and the test terminal has a thickness dimension which is parallel to the thickness dimension of the inner section, the thickness dimension of the test terminal is substantially smaller than the thickness dimension of the inner section, the test terminal is accessible from outside the body from the direction of the first end wall, and the test terminal is adapted to be connected to a female connector.

An electrical switch including a frame, a first stationary contact, a second stationary contact, a roll element and a movable contact mounted to the roll element. The roll element is rotatable around a rotation axis between a first position and a second position relative to the frame. The movable contact includes a first contact portion and a second contact portion. In the first position of the roll element, the movable contact electrically conductively connects the first stationary contact to the second stationary contact, and in the second position of the roll element the first stationary contact is electrically disconnected from the second stationary contact. The first in contact portion and the second contact portion are located on opposite sides of a centre plane perpendicular to the rotation axis.

An electrical contactor system includes a stationary contactor having a stationary contact, a moving contactor having a moving contact, a rotating member, a magnetic blow-out arc quenching device including a permanent magnet, and an isolation arc quenching device. The moving contactor is mounted on the rotating member and is rotatable between a connected position and a disconnected position. The moving contact is in electrical contact with the stationary contact when the moving contactor is rotated to the connected position, the moving contact is separated from the stationary contact when the moving contactor is rotated to the disconnected position. The permanent magnet is statically disposed in a vicinity of the stationary contactor for elongating an arc between the stationary contact and the moving contact by an electromagnetic force so as to extinguish the arc. The isolation arc quenching device pushes the arc toward the permanent magnet so as to force the arc to move to a vicinity of the permanent magnet.

A changeover switch for medium voltage switchgear is provided. The changeover switch includes a first terminal body, a second terminal body, and two elongate pole bodies. The two elongate pole bodies are arranged parallel to each other and rotatably arranged with first ends on opposite sides of, and in direct contact with the first terminal body around a rotation axis. The two elongate pole bodies are rotatable between an open position and a closed position. The second ends of the two elongate pole bodies are positioned in direct contact with opposite sides of the second terminal body. The changeover switch further includes one or more springs arranged between the two elongate pole bodies to urge the two elongate pole bodies towards each other.

The electrical switch includes three fixed contacts and a rotatable knife contact being connected with a permanent electrical connection to a third one of the fixed contacts and including at least one pair of longitudinal blades. The rotatable knife contact connects in a first switching position only a first one and a third one of the fixed contacts electrically together, and in a second switching position only a second one and a third one of the fixed contacts. The rotatable knife contact connects further in a zero switching position the first, the second and the third fixed contact electrically together.
