The disclosure relates to an electrical switching device, e.g., a high-voltage switch, with a mantle-side electrical connection. According to the disclosure, an encapsulated angle disconnector is fitted between the mantle-side electrical connection and the outdoor bushing or an outgoing cable, by means of which angle disconnector the electrical connection is deflected in the disconnector plane, e.g., toward the vertical in the operating position of the switching device. Exemplary embodiments relate, inter alia, to: a horizontal electrical connection and a, 90° disconnector; an additional tilting angle (β) of the angle disconnector about the disconnector input axis; a plurality of mantle-side horizontal electrical connections with associated angle disconnectors, which are tilted away from one another.
