Arc-free switching at high voltages
An increasing number of comfort functions in vehicles must be supplied with increased power. The obvious solution is to enable more power by increasing the operating voltage. The flowing current remains unchanged so that power loss, cable cross-sections and cooling systems must not be adapted.
