Pole terminal

Abstract

The invention relates to a pole terminal (3) for establishing an electrical line connection, comprising a main body (20) and a clamping nut (1) that can be screwed onto the main body (20), wherein a conductor element to be connected to the pole terminal (3) can be pressed against a contact element (5) of the pole terminal (3) by means of the clamping nut (1). In order to provide a novel pole terminal (3) that can indicate to a user of the pole terminal whether an electrical line connection of desired quality has been established, the pole terminal (3) has an indicating element (2), by means of which it can be indicated whether an electrical connection of certain quality is established between the conductor element and the contact element (5), wherein the indicating element (2) responds immediately to the pressing force that is produced by the clamping nut (1) and by means of which the conductor element is pressed against the contact element (5).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
