Double-nozzle switch with external contacts and switching method for double-nozzle switch

The invention relates to a double-nozzle switch and a method for switching high direct currents in polar high-voltage technology. The double-nozzle switch comprises at least one first contact, and the first contact comprises at least one fixed first contact piece, at least one fixed second contact piece and at least one movable first bridge contact piece. An electrical connection is established between the at least one fixed first contact part and the at least one fixed second contact part in the switched-on state by means of the movable first bridge contact part. The double-nozzle switch further comprises at least one second contact which comprises at least one fixed third contact piece, at least one fixed fourth contact piece and at least one movable second bridge contact piece. An electrical connection is established between the at least one fixed third contact part and the at least one fixed fourth contact part in the switched-on state by means of the movable second bridge contact part. The at least one f
