An electrochromic dimming system is proposed having two flat electrodes disposed on respectively a first and a second carrier, and an electrochromic layer arrangement, of which at least one element is arranged between the electrodes. The electrodes are provided with contact elements via which the electrodes can be connected to a voltage/current source. In the region of the peripheral edge of the electrode of the first carrier is arranged an annular conductive element which, possibly with the interposition of a conductive layer, is pressed onto the region of the peripheral edge of the second carrier receiving the other electrode. In the region of the peripheral edge of the second carrier is provided at least one feedthrough for connecting the one electrode to the current/voltage source.
Electrochromic dimming system having two flat electrodes disposed on respectively a first and a second carrier, and an electrochromic layer arrangement, of which at least one element is disposed between the electrodes, the electrodes being provided with contact elements via which the electrodes can be connected to a voltage/current source, characterised in that there is disposed on the region of the peripheral edge of the electrode (3) of the first carrier (1), an annular conductive element (7, 8) which, is pressed onto the region of the peripheral edge of the second carrier (4) receiving the other electrode (5), and in that at least one feedthrough is provided in the region of the peripheral edge of the second carrier (4) for a connection of the one electrode to the current/voltage source.
