Switching device for an electrical switchgear assembly for energy distribution

Abstract

A switching device for an electrical switchgear assembly for power distribution includes a grounding function unit including a first moving control element selectably moveable to a first manual operation position and an isolation function unit including a second moving control element selectably to a second manual operation position. The grounding function unit is selectable to a manual operation state by moving the first moving control element to the first manual operation position, and the isolation function unit function unit is selectable to a manual operation state by moving the second moving control element to the second manual operation position. When the manual operation state is selected for one of the grounding and isolation function units, selection of the other of the grounding and isolation functional units to the manual operation state is blocked by a respective one of the first and second moving control elements.
