A device for a switching device, in particular for grounding switches for medium-voltage voltage switchgear assemblies, has a grounding device shaft in a stationary switch panel, which grounding device shaft can be operated manually, is connected by means of a drive mechanism, which transmits radial movement, to a drive coupling, which accommodates the radial movements, of the switch panel, and can be moved to the coupled state only in a permissible manner by means of a module shaft which is mounted in a movable switching module such that it can rotate. The locked state is indicated by the axial movement of the module shaft beyond the contour of the switching module. In order to operate the disconnector contact when it is coupled, the switching module is locked to the switch panel by the disconnector shaft.
