Summary:The invention relates to a high-voltage device (14) for a high-voltage application. The high-voltage dev ice comprises an electrically insulating housing (15), having a housing cover (16) that covers a housing interior (18), and covering means (10) for at least one electrical terminal (34) or electrical region to be protected from touching, which covering means are arranged in the housing interior (18). The covering means (10) have a protective cover (26). The protective cover covers the electrical terminal (34) or the electrical region, can be locked in a closed position by means of at least one locking element (30) and can be transferred into an open position by means of an opening operation. The at least one locking element (30) for the protective cover (26) within the housing is designed in such a way that the release of the at least one locking element requires a duration, the electrical terminal (34) or the electrical region having transitioned into a touching-safe state after said duration has elapsed following the opening of the housing cover (16) and following the interruption of the high-voltage circuit triggered by the opening of the housing cover.
