Abstract

A modular by-pass device of an electrical component comprises a housing comprising a movable means of sealing and a plurality of conducting terminals, each having one end connected to a terminal of the electrical component circuit, and each having other end fastened to the wall of the housing and projecting into the interior of the housing to form a contact post. An actuator providing transposition between two positions of a control device comprise a plunger shaft and a spring arranged in the space formed between the plunger shaft and the internal wall of the housing. A trigger comprises a retention device of the plunger shaft held in place by a fusible material. A reversing switch comprises a contact zone providing electrical continuity between two contact posts of the terminals of the housing. The claimed invention finds application in the isolation and short-circuiting of a battery element, which has become defective.
