A ground contact unit for a vehicle battery charging system comprises a base body, at least one potential layer, a plurality of contact areas, a plurality of switching units and a plurality of switching lines by means of which the switching units can be actuated, wherein a plurality of switching units are provided on each of the switching lines. The switching lines are subdivided into at least two groups, and each of the switching units is provided on at least two switching lines from at least two different groups, so that the switching state of the switching unit depends on the signal state on its associated switching lines. Each switching unit is coupled to at least one contact area such that the switching unit can electrically connect and interrupt the corresponding at least one contact area to the at least one potential layer assigned to the contact area.A method of switching a contact area is also shown.
