A high-current switch comprises two main electrodes, an auxiliary control electrode. In one of main electrodes along the central axis thereof a plasma gun is made as an empty through cylindrical camera, inside of which a cylindrical auxiliary control electrode is installed, isolated by an insulator from body of the main electrode. A butt-end of the empty through cylindrical camera which is connected to a charge gap between two electrodes is made as a cone having opening angle in the limits of 30° > j >0°. The main electrode and a cylindrical auxiliary control electrode installed in it are connected via a voltage source.
