Abstract
In a resin-embedded switching element provided with a casting containment, which encloses an area of the switching element to be covered by a resin, the casting containment has a fill hole consisting of a blind bore having at its inner end a diaphragm which is sufficiently thin that it can be ruptured by casting resin supplied to the fill hole under pressure and a measuring opening is formed in the top of the casting containment through which air can escape during filling of the casting containment with liquid casting resin and the level of the casting resin in the casting containment can be controlled.
