    Summary
    In order to increase the security against electric shocks for a person (8) working in the area of an electrical system (10), it is provided that a plurality of first radio terminals (90a, 90b) are provided on the electrical system (10), each of which a radio connection for receiving the emergency signal (S) can be established and the person (8) wears a protective device (1) for detecting an electric body current, a second radio terminal (91) being provided on the protective device (1) and the protective device (1 ) in the case of a detected impermissible body current, outputs an emergency signal (S) via a radio connection established between one of the first radio terminals (90a, 90b) and the second radio terminal (91) and transmits it to the emergency signal input (21).

    Electrical system with emergency signal input for receiving a radio transmitted
    distress signal
    The present invention relates to an electrical system with an emergency signal input for receiving an external emergency signal sent via a radio link, a predetermined action being taken in the electrical system when the emergency signal is received, and to an arrangement and a method for performing work on the electrical system a person.
    It is customary to provide an emergency stop on electrical systems, in particular in an industrial environment, in order to disconnect the component which is in the emergency stop circuit when someone touches a live or live component. With such protective devices, the safety of people working on live parts or live parts against electric shock due to unintentional contact can be increased by other people present triggering the emergency stop in the event of a fault. However, this means that at least one other person is in the vicinity of a power accident and also becomes aware of the power accident, which is not always the case.
    Other common safety devices in electrical systems are automatic circuit breakers for the voltage-free switching of circuits in the event of an impermissible electrical current and residual current circuit breakers which are to respond to impermissible earth fault currents. However, these can only provide security if they actually respond in the event of an error. Due to possible high response currents or slower reaction times, there may be a danger for people working on the system despite such safety devices.
    Methods and devices for better protection of people against impermissible electrical currents have therefore become known. DE 39 03 025 A1 describes, for example, such a method and such a device, wherein at least two extremities of the person, e.g. Arms or legs, each an electrode is arranged, which are connected to a control unit. A body current through the contact of an external electrical potential is detected by the control device via the electrodes. If such a current flow is detected, the control device activates a switch-off device with which the further current supply to the contact point is interrupted. The electrodes and the control unit can be arranged on a piece of clothing and the connection between the control unit and the shutdown device is wireless. A similar protective device is shown in DE 44 38 063 A1. With such protective devices, the safety of people working on live parts or live parts against electric shock due to accidental contact can be increased.

    AR-4012 AT
    In the case of a wireless connection between the control unit and the shutdown device, the function of the protective device also depends on whether there is a radio channel for data transmission at all. This can be problematic in large electrical systems or even in buildings if the radio channel between the control unit and the shutdown device is interrupted unnoticed, for example if the person is in a radio shadow, or is impaired, for example by electromagnetic interference fields in the vicinity of electrical systems.
    It is therefore the object of the present invention for persons working in the area of an electrical system to increase the security against electric shocks when touching live or live parts of the electrical system.
    This object is achieved according to the invention in that a plurality of first radio terminals are provided on the electrical system, via which a radio connection for receiving the emergency signal can be established in each case. This means that the probability that at least one radio connection can be established to receive an emergency signal can also be increased in large or distributed electrical systems. A, in particular unnoticed, tearing off of the radio connection for transmitting the emergency signal can thus be largely avoided.
    In this case, a person working on the electrical system preferably wears a protective device for detecting an electrical body current, a second radio terminal being provided on the protective device and the protective device, in the case of a detected impermissible body current, an emergency signal via a radio connection established between one of the first radio terminals and the second radio terminal outputs and transmitted to the emergency signal input. As soon as the protective device detects an impermissible body current (which can be configured accordingly), an emergency signal is triggered, which in turn triggers the specified action in the electrical system through the emergency signal input. In this way, the protection of the person is no longer tied to the presence of another person or to the response of other safety devices.
    Further advantageous refinements and effects of the invention result from the dependent claims and the following description.
    The present invention is explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 8, which show exemplary, schematic and non-limiting advantageous embodiments of the invention. It shows

    The subject invention uses a protective device 1 which is known in its basic function from the prior art and which is explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 1 for better understanding. The protective device 1, or at least parts thereof, is arranged or integrated on an item of clothing 2, here a shirt. Of course, other parts can also be considered as clothing item 2, e.g. a pair of pants, a sweater, a t-shirt, a jacket, a jumpsuit, etc. Combinations of several parts are also possible as clothing item 2, e.g. a combination of trousers and shirt, etc. At least one sensor 3 is arranged on the item of clothing 2 in order to detect an electric body current flowing through the human body. Electrodes 5 can be used as sensors 3, for example, in order to detect an electrical potential or an electrical current. The electrodes 5 are preferably arranged at exposed points of the item of clothing 2, for example in the region of extremities, for example on sleeves, trouser legs or hoods. A sensor 3 is also a biometric sensor 7 in order to detect a biometric signal, for example the frequency of the heartbeat, the amplitude or the course of the heartbeat, the respiratory rate, the skin resistance, etc. By evaluating the biometric signal, in particular the heartbeat (frequency, amplitude and / or course), a flowing electrical body current can also be inferred.
    For this purpose, the sensor 3, or the sensors, can preferably be integrated in the item of clothing 2, but can also be applied separately, for example by means of a cuff, a bracelet or a belt. In one possible embodiment, a sensor 3 could be designed as an electrode 5 in the form of a known Rogowski coil (as in FIG. 1) in order to detect an electrical current flowing through an extremity or other part of the human body. For this purpose, the electrode 5 can be placed in a ring around an extremity, e.g. in a collar of a sleeve or a trouser leg of the item of clothing 2. For the detection of an electrical potential, the electrode 5 must be electrically conductive
    -34/22
    AR-4012 AT fit the skin, e.g. would not be absolutely necessary in the case of a Rogowski coil. In order to detect the heartbeat, a corresponding biometric sensor In clothing 2, e.g. a heart rate sensor, in clothing 2 in the area of
    Chest integrated, or a corresponding chest strap could be put on.
    A sensor 3 is connected via at least one signal line 4 to an evaluation unit 6 (for example in the form of a computing unit, possibly also with corresponding software). The signals detected with the at least one sensor 3 are evaluated in the evaluation unit 6. For example, an electrical potential detected with an electrode 5 as sensor 3 or a detected flowing electrical current can be evaluated. An applied electrical voltage can be determined between two detected electrical potentials, for example with two sensors 3 designed as electrodes 5, and evaluated in the evaluation unit 6. A resistance measurement can also be carried out regularly or continuously between two electrodes 5 in order to check whether the garment 2 is properly connected to the body of the person 8. The body current or potential difference can be evaluated analogously using suitable hardware or digitally, which requires an A / D conversion and corresponding hardware and software. In the event of a detected dangerous body current, for example in the event of an abnormal heartbeat, a detected dangerous current flow or a dangerous potential difference (voltage) between two electrodes 5, which in turn leads to a current flow through the body, the evaluation unit 6 generates an emergency signal S which is used can trigger a desired action. For this purpose, of course, corresponding limit values for an allowable body current, for example an allowable potential difference or an allowable current, can also be stored or specified in the evaluation unit 6, which can also be changeable. Likewise, patterns of a biometric signal can be stored in the evaluation unit 6, which indicate a dangerous body current.
    Advantageously, different sensors 3 can be provided on the item of clothing 2 in order to increase the security of the detection of dangerous electrical body currents. For example, electrodes 5 could be provided on extremities and additionally a biometric sensor 7 for detecting the heartbeat, as shown in FIG. 1.
    Likewise, the safety of the protective device 1 can be increased by providing redundancies. For example, more than one signal line 4 can be provided per sensor 3, as a result of which possible cable breaks or contact errors do not have to lead to the failure of the safety function or a cable break or contact error can even be recognized and possibly also displayed.

    The evaluation unit 6 is preferably held or carried by the person 8 who wears the protective device 1. For example, this could be arranged in a shoulder bag or a backpack, but could also be placed in a pocket of the item of clothing 2 or could advantageously, wholly or partially, also be integrated in the item of clothing 2, for example in the form of an intelligent item of clothing with integrated electronics.
    The protective device 1 thus consists, for example, of an item of clothing 2 with at least one sensor 3 and an evaluation unit 6, which is connected to the at least one sensor 3 with at least one signal line 4 and which evaluates a signal detected by the sensor 3 in order to generate a dangerous electrical body current to capture. The emergency signal S of the evaluation unit 6, or generally of the protective device 1, can be used by an electrical system 10, or parts thereof, to take certain configured actions in order to increase the safety of a person 8 against electric shock. Switching actions are preferably set in order to switch the electrical system 10 or parts thereof free of voltage.
    This is explained by way of example with reference to FIG. 2, which shows a device 11 as an example of an electrical system 10 or part of an electrical system 10. A current and / or voltage generator 25 is provided in the device 11, which generates the required electrical currents and / or voltages at the current and voltage outputs 22 of the device 11. For this purpose, the device 11 is connected to an energy supply 24, which can be external (for example an electrical network or an external battery, or also internally (for example in the case of a battery-operated device). In the device 11 there is between the current and / or voltage generator 25 and a separation unit 23 is provided for the current and voltage outputs 22. The separation unit 23 could, however, also be provided upstream of the current and / or voltage generator 25, or at another suitable location in the device 11. The separation unit 23 can of course also be designed with multiple poles depending on the number of current and voltage outputs 22. When actuated, the emergency stop switch 20 activates the disconnection unit 23, for example a disconnection relay, in the device 11, which disconnects the current and voltage outputs 22 of the device 11 from current and voltage and / An emergency signal input 21 is additionally provided on the electrical system 10, which is used when an emergency signal is received S, in particular by the protective device 1, actuates the separating unit 23 of the emergency stop circuit. According to the invention, consequently, the emergency signal input 21 is also connected to the separating unit 23 and activates the separating unit 23 when an emergency signal S is received via the emergency signal input 21. Of course, a plurality of serially connected separating units 23 could also be provided in the device 11, each of which is controlled separately, for example, a separation unit for the emergency stop switch 20 and a separation unit 23 for the emergency signal input 21. The emergency signal input 21 does not have to
    -56/22
    AR-4012 AT must be integrated into the electrical system 10, but could also be designed as a separate unit which is connected to the electrical system 10 in a suitable manner.
    Other examples of an electrical system 10 are an electrical energy distribution network in a building or an electrical energy supply in a production system in which an emergency stop circuit does not necessarily have to be provided, but in which an emergency signal input 21 is provided for receiving an emergency signal S in order to configure one Trigger (switching) action in the electrical system 10.
    The voltage-free switching of the electrical system 10, or a part thereof, can of course also be implemented in another way. For example, a switch could be activated. A circuit could also be short-circuited (for example by connecting a phase to the neutral conductor) in order to trip an automatic circuit breaker in order to disconnect the circuit from the mains. A sufficiently high earth fault current could also be generated (for example by connecting a phase to earth via a resistor) in order to trigger a residual current circuit breaker. In addition, of course, there are also other possibilities for switching off the electrical system 10, or parts thereof, without voltage.
    The invention is based on the fact that the emergency signal S is output wirelessly and is received wirelessly at the emergency signal input 21. For this purpose, a suitable radio connection can be provided between the protective device 1 and the emergency signal input 21, for which existing standards can also be used. This naturally means that a second radio terminal 91 is provided on the protective device 1 and a first radio terminal 90 at the emergency signal input 21, between which the radio connection is established. The radio connection can also be bidirectional.
    The first radio terminal 91 of the protective device 1 is preferably arranged on the item of clothing 2 or integrated into the item of clothing 2 (for example again in the form of intelligent clothing with integrated electronics) and connected to the evaluation unit 6 or another control unit in the protective device 1.
    In certain applications, for example in buildings or on large systems, the radio connection between the protective device 1 and the emergency signal input 21 can break off easily and undetected, in particular when the person 8 wearing the protective device 1 is moving. This can lead to incorrect triggering of the protective device 1 if a missing radio signal in the emergency signal input 21 triggers a switching action. In the worst case, the protective person 1 no longer provides protection for the person wearing 8 without being noticed.
    The electrical system 10 could also be configured differently depending on the danger of the application, so that an interruption of the radio connection in the case of a very dangerous one
    -67/22
    AR-4012 AT
    Application forces a shutdown, and in less critical application it does not.
    In order to prevent an undetected breaking of the radio connection, it is provided according to the invention that several first radio terminals 90a, 90b are arranged spatially distributed in the area of the electrical system 10, as shown in FIG. In this case, an emergency signal input 21 can be integrated in a first radio terminal 90a, 90b, so that a first radio terminal 90a, 90b with the emergency signal input 21 triggers the intended action in the electrical system 10, as shown in FIG. Likewise, the emergency signal input 21 can be implemented in the electrical system 10 and connected to the plurality of first radio terminals 90a, 90b, as shown in FIG. Mixed forms are also conceivable.
    The second radio terminal 91 of the protective device 1 can establish a radio connection with each first radio terminal 90a, 90b.
    In a simple embodiment of the invention, all first radio terminals 90a, 90b use the same radio channel for the radio connection. If the first radio terminals 90a, 90b are arranged sufficiently close, it can be assumed that there is at least always a radio connection between a first radio terminal 90a, 90b and the second radio terminal 91 on the protective device 1, via which an emergency signal S can be transmitted. The arrangement of the first radio terminals 90a, 90b on the electrical system 10 can of course be planned accordingly.
    In an improved embodiment, the radio connection is multi-channel, with at least so many channels that a radio connection can always be established via a clearly identifiable radio channel. Thus, different radio channels do not necessarily have to be assigned for all first radio terminals 90a, 90b, but the same radio channels can also be used in different first radio terminals 90a, 90b, provided that the radio channels do not overlap. However, each first radio terminal 90a, 90b can of course also be assigned its own radio channel. Any multi-channel radio connections can be used here, for example on the basis of frequency division multiplex or time division multiplex. An example of a suitable radio connection is a Long Range Network (LoRa).
    The protective device 1 can be in a bidirectional radio connection with the first radio terminals 90a, 90b in the reception area in order to be able to receive a radio signal F sent by the first radio terminals 90a, 90b in the protective device 1. The radio signal F from a first radio terminal 90a, 90b is broadcast continuously or at least at regular intervals, and is received by the second radio terminal 91 of the protective device 1.
    / 22 7 '
    AR-4012 AT
    The signal quality of a radio channel between the protective device 1 and a first radio terminal 90a, 90b can thus be evaluated. For example, the protective device 1 can receive radio signals F from first radio terminals 90a, 90b in the reception area on different radio channels and evaluate the signal level of the radio signal F, or another suitable property of the radio signal F. The protective device 1 can then decide which radio channel an emergency signal S is to be sent if necessary. However, it can also be provided that the protective device 1 sends out a signal at regular intervals, which is received by the first radio terminals 90a, 90b in the reception area and is used to assess the signal quality of the radio channels. The protective device 1 can thus be informed, for example by a first radio terminal 90a, 90b, of a radio signal F via which radio channel an emergency signal S is to be sent, if appropriate.
    In this way, the person 8 wearing the protective device 1 can move through a building or in a system without losing the radio connection. The radio connection may move accordingly, in that the best first radio terminal 90a, 90b, or a radio channel (in the sense of the best or at least sufficient signal quality of the radio channel) is assigned for a radio connection between the protective device 1 and the emergency signal input 21 that may be necessary ,
    In principle, it is irrelevant for the invention where the decision is made about which first radio terminal 90a, 90b is to be communicated. The decision could be made in the protective device 1, in the second radio terminal 91, in the first radio terminals 90a, 90b, in the emergency signal input 21 or in the electrical system 10.
    In the protective device 1, preferably on the item of clothing 2 or on an external unit which is in data connection with the protective device 1, at least one further sensor 9 can optionally be provided for detecting a further size (FIG. 1), with the further size being another State of the person 8 (in addition to a possible body current) is detected. The further sensor 9 can be an acceleration sensor, for example, in order to be able to determine a fall of the person 8. A position sensor as a further sensor 9 can be used to detect when the person 8 is lying. The further sensor 9 can be designed to record an EKG (electrocardiogram), which can provide important information about the condition of the accident victim 8 in connection with a power accident. The breathing of the accident victim 8 can also be detected by means of an acceleration sensor or motion sensor as a further sensor 9. Of course, several further sensors 9 can also be provided on the protective device 1, any combinations of the above sensors 9 being conceivable.
    -89/22
    AR-4012 AT
    Values recorded with sensor 3 or sensors 3 and / or values recorded with at least one further sensor 9 can also be stored in protective device 1 in a storage unit, for example in evaluation unit 6. This makes it possible to read out stored values at a later time or to transfer them to other locations.
    In many situations, the protective device 1 can successfully initiate a predetermined (switching) action via an emergency signal input 21 and thus disconnect the electrical system 10 or at least parts thereof from current and voltage. If the protective device 1 is activated, an electric shock has already occurred in these situations. The affected person 8 can sometimes work at remote locations or alone, so that despite the activation of the protective device 1, no help for the accident victim 8 comes. The same applies if the protective device 1 fails for whatever reason, that is to say the protective device 1 responds, but no voltage-free connection can be established.
    It can therefore also be provided that the protective device 1 not only generates and outputs an emergency signal S, but also with a transmission unit 64, e.g. a mobile radio transmitter 63, also establishes a radio connection 62 (indicated by the dashed line) to a configured location 60 that is remote from the location of the power accident, so that help for the accident victim 8 is initiated or coordinated, preferably by another person 61 in the remote location 60, as shown in Fig.5. In this context, “removed” means that this further person 61 is at least so far away from the accident victim 8 that this additional person 61 cannot perceive the state of the accident victim either visually or acoustically. However, the second radio terminal 91 on the protective device 1 can of course also be used as the transmitting unit 64 if the range is sufficient. The additional person 61 can, for example, be seated in an emergency center, which can be in a completely different location. The protective device 1 can set up the radio connection 62 directly via the transmission unit 64, for example by means of a mobile radio transmitter 63 which is integrated in the item of clothing 2, for example again as part of an intelligent clothing.
    Alternatively, the protective device 1 can also establish the radio connection 62 indirectly, for example by connecting the protective device 1 via the transmitting unit 64 via a suitable data connection 65, for example Bluetooth, to a mobile terminal 66 of the person 8, for example a smartphone (for example by means of Bluetooth). which then establishes the radio connection 62 to the remote location 60, as shown in FIG. A predetermined message can be sent via the radio link 62, for example a text message (SMS), a data transmission (for example by e-mail) or a call. The additional person 61 in the remote location 60 can also have a mobile end
    -910 / 22
    AR-4012 AT carry device 67, which can be connected to the radio link 62 if necessary, for example via a mobile network. It is apparent that the remote location 60 (e.g.
    Emergency center) does not have to be local, especially if the other person 61 also uses a mobile terminal 67 for contacting.
    The transmitter unit 64, e.g. in the form of a mobile radio transmitter 63, is preferably integrated in the evaluation unit 6 or also in the item of clothing 2 (for example in the form of intelligent clothing) itself. The transmission unit 64 can be controlled by the evaluation unit 6 of the protective device 1.
    The further person 61 can then coordinate help for the accident victim 8. For example, in an emergency center, the location of people 8 who work on live or live electrical systems 10 may be known. For example, maintenance work on a power supply network is planned as an electrical system 10 (as in FIG. 5) and it is known when and where it is carried out. The protective device 1 can be assigned to a specific person 8 and can also have a unique identification (for example a mobile phone number). In this way, an incoming emergency call (also as a text message or an e-mail) from a protective device 1 can be assigned to a location and / or person 8 in the emergency center, with the help of a helper being able to be coordinated by the other person 61 in a targeted manner.
    The protective device 1 can also be equipped with a unit 72 for determining the position. For this purpose, for example, the unit 72 for determining the position, for example a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, can be arranged on the item of clothing 2 (as indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 7), or can be integrated therein, for example in intelligent clothing with integrated electronics. Of course, other satellite navigation systems are also possible, such as GALILEO. However, there are of course other possibilities for determining the position of a person 8 by means of a unit 72 for determining the position. For example, the availability of WLAN (Wireless LAN) networks could be used to draw a conclusion about the current position. A position could also be determined via a mobile radio network, for example by means of GSM location.
    The protective device 1 can, however, also be connected to an external unit 71, which can carry out a position determination, as a unit 72 for position determination, as shown, for example, in FIG. Today's mobile phones or smart phones generally have a position determination integrated, so that a mobile terminal 66 can be used particularly advantageously as an external unit 71 for this purpose (as in FIG. 7). The external unit 71 can also be a GPS receiver. The protective device 1 can thus be connected to the external unit 71 via a suitable data connection 65, for example Bluetooth
    -1 οΠ / 22
    AR-4012 AT to get the current position of person 8 from external unit 71.
    For the connection, a transmission unit could again be provided in the protective device 1, for example.
    The current position can be stored in the protective device 1, preferably in the evaluation unit 6 of the protective device 1, preferably with further details of a power accident, such as date, time, duration of the body current, level of the current flow, in order to enable a later evaluation. The current position is understood to mean both geocoordinates and a specific location. Since many external units 71 often also have a location function, the location can also be used directly as the current position.
    Of course, the current position or the current location can also be transmitted to the remote location 60 (as in FIG. 5 or 6) in order to support the coordination of help for the accident victim 8. The current position or the current location could also be transmitted to the remote location 60 at certain time intervals in order to always know a current position or a current location of the person 8.
    Independently of the other functions of the protective device 1, the position or location of the person 8 can be recorded and stored in the protective device, for example for documenting power accidents or for statistical records or evaluations of power accidents. In addition, further details such as date, time, duration of power contact, etc. can be saved.
    It is obvious that when a remote location 60 is notified by the protective device 1 in the event of a power accident, additional information can of course also be transmitted, for example data from further sensors 9 on the protective device 1 relating to the condition of the person 8, for example the position of the person 8 (case , Person lies), pulse, ECG, breathing. Such additional information can be important for the coordination of aid and the rescue operation.
    However, the remote location 60 can of course also be automated to the extent that in the event of an incoming message from a power accident to a person 8, certain actions are taken automatically, for example the notification of an emergency medical service or helper, possibly also with the specific position or location of the person 8, possibly also with other existing data. In this case, the additional person 61 would not be absolutely necessary.
    For this purpose, the remote location 60 could also determine one or more helpers in the vicinity of the person 8 involved in the accident and inform them specifically about the power accident. Preference meadow is determined the helper who is closest to the accident victim 8 locally. For this purpose, the helper can use a communication unit, for example a cell phone or
    -1112/22
    AR-4012 AT
    Smart Phone, be equipped by the remote 60 or from another
    Person 61 in the remote location 60 is contacted with a corresponding message.
    The message could be an SMS, email, or something similar, or a call.
    A helper in the vicinity of the accident victim could be determined by knowing the positions of all the helpers in question in the remote location 60. For example, the current location could be continuously transmitted to the remote location 60 at predetermined intervals via the helpers' communication units. Proximity could also be determined in such a way that it is determined whether a communication unit of the accident victim 8, for example a mobile terminal 66, can exchange messages with a communication unit of a helper, for example via Bluetooth, or whether both can receive the same WLAN network , This could also be continuously communicated to the remote location 60 by the respective communication unit so that the remote location 60 always has a current status.
    Situations are conceivable that the (emergency) signal S carries out a (switching) action on the electrical system 10, but does not lead to the desired success, that is to say that the contacted part is de-energized. This can happen, for example, if an emergency circuit is interrupted, but there is another circuit that is not connected to the emergency stop. Therefore, the electrical system 10 also monitors whether the switching action leads to the desired success within a predetermined time period, for example 100 ms. For example, it can be determined whether an emergency signal S is no longer received by the protective device 1 after the switching operation. If no de-energization can be determined within the defined period of time, a further predetermined (switching) action can be triggered in the electrical system 10, for example in order to disconnect at least one further circuit. It is often the case, for example, that only certain sockets or power supplies are connected to an emergency circuit, but other electrical parts are in a different circuit. This could first separate the emergency circuit as described and in a second step, if the first step was unsuccessful, a defined further circuit. Of course, different hierarchies of circuits can be defined, which are sequentially switched. For example, an emergency power circuit could first be switched off, then an adjacent emergency power circuit or a circuit for normal sockets, then a circuit for IT infrastructure in a specific part of a building, then the entire building and finally the power supply to a server room.
    It is also conceivable that several people are in the area of the work at the same time to carry out work on live parts. In such situations, it can happen that a person's 8 electrical accident is not noticed by other people in the vicinity, even in the immediate vicinity. This allows other Perris / 22
    AR-4012 AT people come into danger, for example because they touch the person 8 in the circuit or because they also touch the live part. Apart from this, an efficient action to rescue the accident victim 8 or to protect other people in the vicinity, for example by switching off or short-circuiting the circuit or by pushing away the accident victim 8, is only possible if at least one other person in the vicinity is aware of the power accident obtained. A protective device 1 according to the invention can also be used advantageously in such cases, as is described by way of example with reference to FIG.
    It is assumed that several people 8a, 8b, each with a protective device 1a, 1b, are in the vicinity of a live component and that the protective devices 1a, 1b are in communication connection. For this purpose, each protective device 1a, 1b can be designed with a communication unit 80a, 80b in order to be able to set up a communication connection 81, for example by means of Bluetooth. The communication connection 81 can, however, also be established indirectly, for example as explained in FIG. 6, via a mobile terminal 66 of a person 8a, 8b. However, the communication units 80a, 80b of the two protective devices 1a, 1b do not have to communicate directly with one another. It would be conceivable, for example, that a communication center 82 be set up in the area of the work, with which the individual protective devices 1a, 1b connect via their communication units 80a, 80b, as indicated in FIG. The communication link 81 is then established via the communication center 82. The communication link 81 can be permanently set up or can also be set up on a case-by-case basis. If a protective device 1a triggers an emergency signal S for a person 8a because this person 8a gets into a circuit, the at least one further person 8b in the vicinity is communicated via the communication unit 80a of the protective device 1a via the communication connection 81 and the communication unit 80b of the protective device 1b above it informed. For this purpose, a corresponding signaling unit, for example an acoustic, visual or palpable alarm, can also be provided on a protective device 1. If a protective device 1 is additionally provided with a unique identifier, it can also be transmitted which protective device 1 is affected in order to make it easier for the accident victim 8a to be found. Aid for an accident victim 8a can thus be considerably accelerated.
    Instead of a communication center 82 set up in the area of the work, the communication described could also take place via a (arbitrarily) distant location 60 as a communication center, for example as described in FIG. 5 or 6.
    The protective device 1 of the person 8 involved in the accident, or a communication unit 80 of the protective device 1 or also an external device 71 coupled to it, for example a mobile telephone which the person 8 is carrying, can also optionally with a loud acoustic signal
    -1314/22
    AR-4012 AT with spoken warning text, surrounding, possibly also untrained and not equipped, other people to the danger and the required help. An acoustic warning such as "Warning - power accident - this person is under voltage. Don't touch the person. Interrupt the circuit or knock the person off the circuit ”or 5“ Warning - electrical accident - this person received an electric shock. Touchable parts under voltage are nearby ”would be conceivable, for example.
    Of course, it can also be checked, either continuously or at least at the beginning of the work, whether there is a radio connection between the protective device 1 and the emergency signal input 21 at all. If not, a corresponding alarm 10 can be displayed on the protective device 1, for example acoustically, visually or palpably. The same naturally applies if a low charge state of an energy supply of the protective device 1 is determined in the protective device 1.
