The earthing switch is used for the safety of drivers and workshop personnel during checks and faults in the traction units.
It connects the live lines in front of and behind the main switch to earth.
The integration into the interlocking concept prevents unauthorised switching on and off of the earthing and touching of live parts. At the same time, a key multiplier is integrated into the earthing disconnector.
