Abstract
Overload by-pass conductor with an external short circuit heat conduction path, including an outer wall of the overload by-pass conductor, two electrodes, one of the electrodes being a counter electrode, a contact surface connected to the counter electrode, a metal carrier being disposed along the outer wall and being electrically conductingly connected to one of the electrodes, and a solder piece being in a mechanically fixed connection with the metal carrier and being adjacent the contact surface, the solder piece being spaced from other parts of the overload by-pass conductor in an operating state, and the solder piece being deformable for causing an external short circuit upon the occurrence of an overload, the external short circuit being triggered after a delay with respect to the beginning of the overload due to the heat conduction path.
