A safety switch, for a glass door, comprising a current scanning device connected to the conductors of an alternating voltage source, said glass door, being used for refrigerating and deep freeze chambers and comprising two or more glass panes of hardened glass, of which the front pane remote from the refrigerating and deep freeze chamber is heated by an electrically conductive layer attached on the inner surface of the pane, which layer is connected to an upper and, respectively, lower collecting conductor, and the rear pane facing to the refrigerating and deep freeze chamber is provided with at least one conductor attached on the pane, all of said which conductors being connected to said current scanning device, which is capable to scan whether current flows through said collecting conductors and the conductors of the rear pane and is capable to break the the connection between the conductors of the two panes and the alternating current voltage source in the event that no current flows in the collecting conductors and/or in the conductor of the rear pane, characterized in that the current scanning device (20) comprises a fuse (F) of porcelain, on which bi-polar conductors from the voltage source are located, that the current scanning device (20) is capable to increase the current intensity through said fuse (F) in the event that current does not flow in the collecting conductors (12, 13) and/or in the conductor (17) of the rear pane (4), and said porcelain fuse (F) thereby is heated so as to crack, whereby the bi-polar conductors on the fuse are broken, in a bi-polar manner so that on the fuse of porcelain where the bi-polar conductors connected to the voltage source (46) are located, the bi-polar conductors have a spacing distance between each other at the break point (47) of the fuse sufficient for a complete non-conductive break of each of the alternating voltage bi-polar conductors, which for a 220 Volt A.C. source should be at least 3 mm.
