Claim:
1. A battery arrangement for an electrical load in a vehicle configured to carry hazardous material, comprising: a battery having at least one first connection electrically connectable to the electrical load; a first electrical resistor connected electrically in series with the battery and a second connection, the second connection being electrically connectable to the electrical load; a switch component part connected electrically in parallel with the first electrical resistor and electrically connected to the battery, the switch component part being controllable such that when a first voltage, which can be applied at a third connection, exceeds a presettable value, the switch component part is closed to short circuit the first resistor, and in the case when the first voltage falls below the presettable value, the switch component part is opened to cancel the short circuit; and a delay element configured to delay a switching operation of the switch component part, the delay element being connected electrically in series between a first contact of the switch component part and the third connection and being arranged such that, in the case of a loss of the first voltage, a second voltage is provided that is present at the first contact and is reduceable after a presettable time.
