Abstract
A conductor connection terminal having several spring force clamping connections, each of which has at least one clamping spring, which form a clamping point for clamping an electrical conductor with an associated busbar piece. The invention also relates to an electrical connector having at least one such conductor connection terminal.
Claims19
A conductor connection terminal comprising:
- at least two spring force clamping connections, each having at least one clamping spring that forms a clamping point for clamping an electrical conductor with an associated busbar piece;
- and
- a rotary actuator that is a manual actuating element, the rotary actuator being rotatable about an axis of rotation and which, in the event of a rotation by a first rotation angle, is set up to deflect several or all of the clamping springs and thereby open the clamping points associated therewith,
- wherein the axis of rotation of the rotary actuator runs at least approximately parallel and/or in alignment with a conductor insertion direction of the several or all of the clamping springs to be actuated by the rotary actuator.

A conductor connection terminal comprising:
- at least two spring force clamping connections, each having at least one clamping spring that forms a clamping point for clamping an electrical conductor with an associated busbar piece;
- and
- a rotary actuator that is a manual actuating element, the rotary actuator being rotatable about an axis of rotation and which, in the event of a rotation by a first rotation angle, is set up to deflect several or all of the clamping springs and thereby open the clamping points associated therewith,
- wherein the several or all of the clamping springs to be actuated by the rotary actuator are arranged in a ring arrangement about a center and/or a center axis of the conductor connection terminal, and
- wherein the axis of rotation of the rotary actuator runs through the ring-shaped arrangement of the clamping springs.
