Explanation:
Siemens FWB der Energie- und Automatisierungstechnik. ISBN3-8009-4118-X.

"Schirm-" has many technical meanings.
The function of the rail in your limited context seems to be protective, perhaps with respect to emr, though in your context it might conceivably be for mechanical or electric shock protection.
