Abstract
A device having an energy-generating unit and a distributor unit for distributing electrical energy to electrical loads. The electrical loads are connected to connector part halves of the distributor unit. Connector part halves, arranged at the load ends of the lines, are connected to connector part halves of the loads. The connector part halves which are connected to the lines have line bridges which serve to close or open a line section of a diagnostic circuit. A switching means is actuated by means of a control unit and is arranged between the energy-generating unit and the distributor unit. A signal generator and an evaluation unit are assigned to the diagnostic circuit. The invention also relates to a method for monitoring the diagnostic circuit.
