ABSTRACT:
The electrical switch component has two temperature sensors. The first temperature sensor is provided at that location of the component which is warmest during operation. The first sensor switches the component off when a first, upper threshold value is reached, and switches the component on when the temperature falls below a second, lower threshold value. The oscillation owing to the first temperature sensor is switched on and off by the second temperature sensor, which is arranged remote from the first temperature sensor at a location that is less warm than the first temperature sensor. The second sensor has lower threshold values than the first temperature sensor.
