Original Abstract Submitted

An electrical circuit for a vehicle high-voltage network, the network including two electrical stores. The circuit includes first and second connection points for electrical connection to a load and/or charging device, a first switch between a first pole connector, for electrical contacting a first pole of a first electrical store, and the first connection point, a second switch between a second pole connector, for electrical contacting a second pole of a second electrical store, and the second connection point, a third switch between the first pole connector and a third pole connector, for electrical contacting a first pole of the second electrical store, and a fourth switch between the second pole connector and a fourth pole connector, for electrical contacting a second pole of the first electrical store. The switches are switchable between connecting and separating states. The first and/or second switches galvanically separate in the separating state.
