1. A device for integrating at least one electrical element into an electrical circuit during ongoing operation of the electrical circuit, wherein the electrical circuit comprises at least two modules which are connected to one another via at least one electrical connection, the device comprising:
- the at least one electrical connection including a connecting line to corresponding terminals of the at least two modules, wherein the connecting line comprises two first electrical lines which each lead to one of the at least two modules and are electrically connected to one another at at least a first contact point by a spring mechanism,a plug configured to disconnect the spring mechanism by insertion of the plug at the at least first contact point, the plug comprising at least two second electrical lines which form at least one electrical conductor and contact pair, and an insulating material lying between the contact pair, in such a way that the electrical contact between the two first electrical lines is released, but a respective electrical contact is produced at at least a second contact point between, in each case, one of the first electrical lines and one of the second electrical lines, wherein the plug is to be connected to the at least one electrical element to be integrated.

11. A method for integrating at least one electrical element into an electrical circuit during ongoing operation of the electrical circuit, wherein the electrical circuit comprises at least two modules which are connected to one another via at least one electrical connection, and the at least one electrical connection is implemented by a connecting line and corresponding terminals of the modules for the connecting line, wherein the connecting line comprises two first electrical lines which each lead to one of the two modules and are electrically connected to one another at at least a first contact point by means of a spring mechanism, the method comprising:
the spring mechanism, the spring mechanism comprising at least two second electrical lines which form a line and contact pair, and an insulating material lying between the contact pair, in such a way that the electrical contact between the two first electrical lines is released, but a respective electrical contact is produced at at least a second contact point between, in each case, one of the first electrical lines and one of the second electrical lines, wherein the plug is connected to the at least one electrical element to be integrated.
