Abstract
A connector for a circuit breaker and a downstream contactor has a one-piece configuration and facilitates an electrical connection between the circuit breaker and the downstream contactor. The connector includes at least one sensor, the connector includes an evaluation unit for measured values of the sensor, and the connector includes first contacts for the circuit breaker and second contacts for the downstream contactor, both acting in the same mating direction. A feeder for connecting a load and an arrangement having a distribution system, a load and a feeder, are also provided.
