An electrical switch (120) includes an insulative housing (121), the operation part (150) disposed in the housing (121), and the metallic cover (160) enclosing the housing (121). The metallic cover (160) includes a front plate (161), a pair of side plates (164) extending rearwardly from two opposite lateral sides of the front plate (161). The side plate (164) include a main body (165) to cover the corresponding side wall (125) of the housing and an extension (167) extending beyond a rear face of the housing (121) and adapted to be soldered upon a printed circuit board (110) on which the housing (121) is seated.

A safety device for emergency shut-down of an electric instantaneous water heater. The safety device includes a contact and a counter contact, which are set up to conduct the current for supplying the instantaneous water heater in a contacted state and to interrupt the power supply of the instantaneous water heater in an open state. Further, the safety device includes a mounting device for mounting the counter contact on a tie rod, wherein the tie rod is set up to release the mounting device and the counter contact 4 from the contact to interrupt a power supply of the instantaneous water heater. The contact of the safety device is implemented as a contact rivet which is integrated directly into a circuit board.

A push switch which can have a small separation distance from a side surface of a mounting board, when it is mounted on the mounting board through a step, is disclosed. The push switch includes a substrate having a first surface on which a first fixed contact point and a second fixed contact point surrounding the first fixed contact point are formed, a second surface located opposite to the first surface, a third surface extending from the second surface to a corner in a direction perpendicular to the first surface, and a fourth surface extending from the corner parallel to the first surface, and a conductive movable contact point having a peripheral edge is in contact with the second fixed contact point, and a center contacted by the first fixed contact point when the movable contact point is pressed, and the corner includes a groove recessed with respect to at least one of the third surface and the fourth surface.

A fuse element capable of surface-mounting and capable of increased ratings while maintaining high-speed blowout property; and a fuse device using the same. A fuse element blown by self-generated heat caused when a rate-exceeding current flows therethrough constitutes a current path of a fuse device and has a low melting point metal layer and a high melting point metal layer laminated onto the low melting point metal layer; when the current flows therethrough, the low melting point metal layer erodes the high melting point metal layer and blowout occurs.

Embodiments of a power module of a charging station are disclosed herein. The power module includes a printed circuit board, an electrical input for connection to an electrical supply network, an electrical output for connection to a charging control circuit, and a switching actuator electrically connected between the input and the output. The switching actuator is encapsulated in a housing and connected to the printed circuit board by connection contacts led out of the housing. According to the present disclosure, a base of a protective trough is arranged between the housing and the printed circuit board.

A release mechanism for surge protectors includes a first electrical connection pin soldered with a varistor's second electrode, a function rotating member sheathed on a fixed column and installed between a varistor and a bridge bracket, an elastic driving device fixed into an internal box body, and a bridge bracket fixed to a second electrical connection pin in the internal box body (2). If the varistor is not released, then the bridge bracket will be passed through a soldering window and soldered with a varistor's first electrode, or else the elastic driving device will drive the function rotating member to rotate around the fixed column. An arc shield plate shields between the bridge bracket and electrode. A failure status indicating area is exposed and a remote linkage rod is triggered.
