Claim Text:
1. A starting current limitation system comprising: a first electrical connection element connectable to a motor vehicle battery pole; a second electrical connection element connectable to a starter, wherein the two electrical connection elements open out into metal sheets disposed parallel to one another and electrically isolated from one another via a gap; a parallel circuit connected between the first connection element and the second connection element, the parallel circuit including a branch with a current control device and a branch with an electrical resistor, in such a way that, at the beginning of a warm start of the motor vehicle, a starter current is conducted via the resistor and after the beginning of the warm start, the starter current is conducted via the current control device and the resistor at the same time, and the current control device controls the starting current after the beginning of the warm start in a linear mode or a mode including a series of pulses; and wherein the resistor and/or the current control device electrically contacts the metal sheets with one another via the gap.
