<p>The device comprises first and second input terminals (7,9) adapted to be connected to first and second poles (11,13) of a first DC voltage source(15), third and fourth input terminals (33,35) adapted to be connected to first and second poles of a second DC voltage source (41) and first and second output terminals (3,5) adapted to be connected to the load (1). The device further comprises first and second electrical connections (17,19) connecting the first and second input terminals to the first and second output terminals, respectively, third and fourth electrical connections (34,36) connecting the third and fourth input terminals to the first and second output terminals, respectively and a switch means (21) included in at least one of the first and second electrical connections, said switch means comprising a first electrode (23) connected to one of the first and second input terminals and a second electrode (25) connected to the first output terminal, said switch means being connected to establish an electrically conducting path between its first and second electrodes if a first DC voltage source is connected to the first and second input terminals and unless a second DC voltage source producing a voltage exceeding the voltage produced by the said first DC voltage source is connected to the third and fourth input terminals. A selectively conductive element is included in at least one of said third and fourth electrical connections, said selectively conducting element being in an electrically conducting state when the second DC voltage source (41) is connected to the third and fourth input terminals (33,35) with a predetermined polarity and in a non-conducting state when the second DC voltage source is disconnected and the first DC voltage source (15) is connected to the first and second input terminals (7,9). In order to prevent a voltage drop over and a loss of power in the switch means, the switch means (21) further comprises a control electrode (27) connected directly to that one of the third (33) and fourth (35) input terminals, to which the selectively conductive element (43) is connected, the control electrode thereby receiving from the said input terminal a control voltage for controlling the switch means. <IMAGE></p> |
