Abstract
The polarity reversal protection unit comprises a pyrotechnic disconnecting unit, a detector device, a tripping element, a first connection element electrically connected with at least one consumer connection and a second connection element electrically connecting a supply support point with the first connection element. The pyrotechnic disconnecting unit is arranged on at least one of the connection elements. The tripping element has a first connection, electrically insulated from the connection elements, to the detector device and a second connection to one of the connection elements, so that a current flow in the tripping element causes a triggering of the pyrotechnic disconnecting unit. The triggering of the pyrotechnic disconnecting unit causes an electrical disconnection of the first and second connection elements.
