An electrical switch comprises a first fixed contact and a second fixed contact positioned opposite to and at a distance from the first fixed contact, a movable contact having a rotational axis (Z1-Z1) positioned in the middle portion of the movable contact, the rotational axis (Z1-Z1) of the movable contact being positioned between the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact, the movable contact being rotatable between a closed position in which a first outer end of the movable contact makes contact to the first fixed contact and a second outer end opposite to the first outer end of the movable contact makes contact to the second fixed contact and an open position in which the movable contact is electrically isolated from the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact, a first extinguishing apparatus positioned after the first fixed contact in an opening direction of the movable contact, whereby the first outer end of the movable contact passes through the first extinguishing apparatus when the movable contact is rotated from the closed position to the open position and vice a versa, a second extinguishing apparatus positioned after the second fixed contact in an opening direction of the movable contact, whereby the second outer end of the movable contact passes through the second extinguishing apparatus (14A, 14B) when the movable contact is rotated from the closed position to the open position and vice a versa, a first permanent magnet positioned after the first fixed contact in an opening direction of the movable contact, and a second permanent magnet positioned after the second fixed contact in an opening direction of the movable contact, characterized in that the first permanent magnet is positioned after the first extinguishing apparatus in the opening direction of the movable contact, and the second permanent magnet is positioned after the second extinguishing apparatus in the opening direction of the movable contact, a first shutter element is positioned in connection with the first fixed contact, and a second shutter element is positioned in connection with the second fixed contact, each shutter element (410, 420) being movable in synchronism with the movable contact between an extended position in which the shutter element (410, 420) is positioned between the respective fixed contact (100, 200) and the respective extinguishing apparatus (14A, 14B) when the movable contact is in the open position and a contracted position in which the shutter element (410, 420) is positioned outside the patch of the movable contact allowing the movable contact to turn from the open position to the closed position. a first fixed contact and a second fixed contact positioned opposite to and at a distance from the
