    Abstract: A head-worn device comprises a housing with an insulating housing wall and is housing a conducting element (24; 31) having at least one end embedded into the housing wall, and a component (22; 30) being arranged adjacent to the conducting element (24; 31). The component (22; 30) and the conducting element (24; 31) are being separated by a partitioning element (26; 28; 40) provided as an insulator. The partitioning element (26; 28; 40) is having a shape increasing the travelling distance for a spark between the conducting element (24; 31) and the component (22; 30) by at least 40%, and a thickness and a Dielectric Strength sufficient to resist 3 kV without breaking down.
