Electroceramic component with fuse provided by conductor piece melted upon application of overvoltage

摘要

The invention relates to an electroceramic component comprising a safety device for protection against overvoltage, wherein a current path is defined between a first and a second electrical contact (5, 15), which extends along at least one ceramic base body (1) and an electrical conductor part (10), wherein the electrical conductor part (10) is in direct heat contact with the base body and is configured in such a way that it melts when the intended operating voltage of the component is exceeded as a result of heating in the base body and the current path is interrupted. Electrical flashover voltages between the areas of the current path that are contacted by the electrical conductor part (10) are prevented by an electrically insulating material (20).
