The invention relates to a static contact for a switch cabinet, and the switch cabinet. The static contact for the switch cabinet comprises: a contact body used for being fixed in a contact box of the switch cabinet, wherein the contact body comprises an insertion section, the insertion section is of a cylindrical structure and is used for allowing a contact arm on a circuit breaker to be inserted, and an annular contact finger installation groove is formed in the inner wall face of the insertion section; an annular contact finger mounted in the contact finger mounting groove and used for being in conductive contact with a contact arm on the circuit breaker; and an insertion section cooling fin arranged at the position, corresponding to the annular contact finger, of the outer peripheral surface of the insertion section. The static contact and the contact arm are in direct plug-in fit, so that the centering of the contact arm and the static contact can be better realized, the contact arm and the static contact are better in contact, and the through-current capability is ensured; and the insertion section radiating fins are arranged at the positions, corresponding to the annular contact fingers, of the outer peripheral surface of the insertion section, so that natural dissipation of heat is realized, the cost is reduced, the partial discharge sound in the switch cabinet cannot be masked, and timely discovery of insulation faults is facilitated.
