Mechatronic control device

Abstract

An electronic electrical device comprising a first electrical conductor for the input of electric current, a second electrical conductor for the output of electric current, first and second electrical control devices, and first and second actuation systems. The first electrical control device and the second electrical control device are each adapted to have two respective positions to electrically connect and disconnect the first electrical conductor and the second electrical conductor to and from each other. The first actuation system comprising a digital electronic controller and the second actuation system comprising only mechanical components, or electromechanical components, or mechanical and electromechanical components. The first actuation system is adapted to vary the position of said first electrical control device independently of said second actuation system. The second actuation means is adapted to vary the position of said second electrical control device independently of said first actuation system.
