The switching chamber is intended for a gas-insulated high-voltage circuit breaker. It contains an axially symmetrical housing and a contact arrangement held in the housing with two switching pieces, of which at least one is arranged such that it can move along the housing axis. The switching chamber housing has two hollow bodies consisting of electrically conductive material which can be connected to a high voltage and an insulating tube holding the hollow bodies axially at a distance. A separation zone, which is electrically shielded during operation of the circuit breaker, is formed in the surface of at least one of the two hollow bodies and separates two surface zones having different degrees of roughness from one another in the hollow body. Inhomogeneities in the surface of the switching chamber housing which may reduce the dielectric strength of the circuit breaker equipped with the switching chamber therefore do not have any effect. For this reason, the switching chamber and the circuit breaker are characterized by a high degree of operational reliability and safety with a simple design.
