Abstract
An electrical switching device including an input connection land, an output connection land, and a connection member that is capable of switching between a closed position allowing an electric current to flow between the input and output connection lands and an open position preventing the flow of the current between the input and output connection lands. The electrical switching device includes an accelerometer that is capable of measuring a component of an acceleration of the switching device when switching the connection member between the closed and open positions and a control configured to estimate, on the basis of an acceleration measurement signal delivered by the accelerometer, a duration of switching of the connection member between the closed and open positions, and to determine wear on the switching device on the basis of the estimated switching duration.
