Contact bridge for connecting two busbars and connector with a contact bridge

Abstract

A contact bridge for connecting a first busbar to a second busbar includes a first clamp mouth for at least partially receiving the first busbar, a second clamp mouth facing away from the first clamp mouth for at least partially receiving the second busbar, and a spring assembly against which the first clamp mouth and the second clamp mouth are each configured to be openable, wherein the first clamp mouth is connected to the second clamp mouth in an electrically conductive and motion-transmitting manner. This ensures that compensating movements required to overcome positional tolerances between the busbars are distributed evenly between the first and second clamping jaws. Furthermore, a housing for the contact bridge and a connector with such a contact bridge is provided.
