| Brückenschalter jumper Explanation: Most Google searches lead to something, describing a jumper. ...Meistens sind es kleine Brückenschalter, die man mit der Pinzette umstecken muß. Other German options für this little U-shaped item are: Schaltbrücke, Konfigurationsstecker, Steckbrücke, Kontaktbrücke, Brücke, Quercerbinder und auch Brückenschalter. The one sites example is not typical: Doppelunterbrechung des electrischen Schaltkreises durch Brückenschalter, 4 Baureihen, Öffner, Schließer, Umschalter. The illustration basically shows a switch, mounted to a board, taking the place of a jumper. It also says that the "2 pole" interruption in this case is accomplished with this unique Brückenschalter application. It does not say that Brückenschalter in general cause "2 pole" interruption.
