Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit arrangement with a thyristor circuit, as well as to a method for testing the thyristor circuit (11). The thyristor circuit (11) comprises at least one series circuit (12) in which two or more thyristors (13) are connected in series. Each thyristor (13) is parallel-connected to an RC member (20). A control device (28) can energize the thyristors (13) individually and independently of each other by means of a control signal (S ik), so that each thyristor (13) can be individually switched into its conducting condition. During a test sequence, the thyristors (13) are switched successively into their conducting condition, wherein - in a series circuit (12) and/or in the thyristor circuit (11) - respectively only one thyristor (13) is in its conducting condition. While a thyristor (13) is conducting, the capacitor (22) of the associate RC member (20) discharges and produces a thyristor current (I T). As a result of this, the conducting condition is maintained until the thyristor current (I T) falls below the holding current (I H). The control device (28) can use the thyristor voltage (U AK) and/or the thyristor current (I T) to evaluate the function or the switching behavior of the thyristor (13).
