Abstract
The invention relates to a protection device for voltage-limiting elements of a low-voltage line that extends out of a vehicle high-voltage region. A vehicle high-voltage device having a high-voltage region (HV), which is arranged in a housing (G), and having at least one low-voltage line (NL) is described. Said low-voltage line leaves the high-voltage region (HV) through an aperture (D). The high-voltage region is provided in the housing (G). The aperture (D) is provided in an outwardly delimiting housing wall (GW) of the housing (G). The at least one low-voltage line (NL) is connected to a ground potential (M) or to a connection therefor via a voltage-limiting element (V) and a current-limiting element (SG) connected in series with said voltage-limiting element.
