  "textContent": "The invention relates to an electrical power interface of a vehicle, in particular a commercial vehicle or a rail vehicle. The power interface comprises a first power contact (11) which can be brought into contact with a second power contact (21; 41) to establish an electrical power path; an auxiliary contact (14) which is arranged electrically isolated from the first power contact (11) and which is arranged relative to the first power contact (11) such that when the first power contact (11) and the second power contact (21) are brought into contact with one another to form the electrical power path, the auxiliary contact (14) also contacts the second power contact (21), wherein the auxiliary contact (14) is electrically connected in parallel to the first power contact (11) via a measurement path (3). The power interface further comprises a measuring device for detecting the state of electrical contact between the first power contact (11) and the second power contact (21), which is configured to determine via the measurement path (3) a voltage drop at the electrical power interface and/or a quantity correlating with the voltage drop.",
