Abstract
A circuit board arrangement that is for an electronic/electromechanical apparatus and that has a mechanically actuable switch for at least two different power line voltages includes a circuit board having a polygonal cutout therethrough, which defines a plurality of polygon sides. A plurality of contact surfaces on a first side of the circuit board is provided, each such contact surface being associated with a respective polygon side of the polygonal cutout. Each of the contact surfaces is connected to an electrical conductor of a power supply unit and is positioned such that a pair of contact surfaces opposite to each other with respect to the cutout correspond to one voltage. A contact spring extends into the cutout and has a pair of spring legs respectively contacting a pair of contact surfaces positioned opposite to each other with respect to the cutout.
