ABSTRACT:
A shunting element includes two terminal elements for bridging an electrical component, at least one semiconductor component, and at least one electrically conducting layer connecting the semiconductor component to the two terminal elements, the electrically conducting layer being alloyed with the semiconductor component to form a shorting element upon the passage of a current which increases the temperature in the electrically conducting layer and in the semiconductor component to a given value.
