Safety socket, esp. for wall mounting, has contact carrier moved into contact closure position to activate protective device until leakage/difference current activates electronic switch

摘要

The safety socket has a socket housing (11) contg. plug contacts connected to a protective device (17) reactive to leakage current or difference current. A contact carrier (30) is moved from a contact free position into a contact closure position to activate the protective device and is electromagnetically retained in this position until a leakage or difference current activates switching electronics.
