Electric switch

An electric switch comprising a contact system;

• a movable actuating element for switching over the contact system between two switch positions;
• and a drivable actuator, which is operatively connected to the actuating element such that the actuating element in at least one of the two positions is moved, on driving the actuator, into the other switch position by the actuator for switching the contact system, wherein the actuator is an electromagnet having a coil and an armature such that the operative connection between the actuator and the actuating element is effected by the armature, wherein the actuating element is moved by the actuator into the other switch position by acting of the armature via a plunger on a lip on the actuating element,
• wherein the switch has a housing, the actuator and electronics are located in the housing, the electronics are programmable electronics, which are arranged on a printed circuit board located in the housing,
• wherein the printed circuit board has one of (i) a lug, by which the electronics are operated in an operating mode, and by at least partially removing the lug, the electronics are operated in another operation mode, such that the operation mode is a test mode and in the another operation mode the test mode is ended, or (ii) a programming lug, with contact-making points on the programming lug, and
• wherein one of final inspection, or programming of the switch is made possible.
