This invention relates to an electrical connecting terminal (10) with an insulating housing (20), which contains a clamp body receptacle (22) with an insertion opening (21) for an electrical conductor, with a clamp body (30), which can be inserted into the clamp body receptacle (22) and has a connecting space (31) for the electrical conductor, said connecting space (31) being adjacent to the insertion opening (21), and within which a locking screw (40) is located in such a manner that the inserted electrical conductor is firmly clampable in the clamp body (30) by means of said locking screw (40), the clamp body (30) having at least one electrical contact, which is accessible from the base area (20a) of the housing (20), the housing (20) being of one-piece integral construction and having a plug-in opening (24) for the clamp body (30) on one side and being attachable to the clamp body (30) via a snap-in mechanism, the one-sided plug-in opening (24) being located in the base area (20a) of the housing (20).
Electrical connecting terminal (10) comprising an insulating housing (20), which contains a clamp body receptacle (22) with an insertion opening (21) for an electrical conductor, with a clamp body (30), which can be inserted into the clamp body receptacle (22) and has a connecting space (31) for the electrical conductor, said connecting space (31) being adjacent to the insertion opening (21), and within which a locking screw (40) is located in such a manner that the inserted electrical conductor is firmly clampable in the clamp body (30) by means of said locking screw (40), the clamp body (30) having at least one electrical contact, which is accessible from a base area (20a) of the housing (20), characterized in that the housing (20) is of one-piece integral construction, that it has a plug-in opening (24) for the clamp body (30) on one side and is attachable to the clamp body (30) via a snap-in mechanism, the one-sided plug-in opening (24) being located in the base area (20a) of the housing (20).
Electrical connecting terminal (10) comprising an insulating housing made of one piece (20) and insertable into a clamp body (30), whereby the housing (20) comprises a floor area (20a), a top side (20b), a front side (20c) and a back side (20d) and a clamp body receptacle (22) whereby in the front side (20c) comprises an insertion opening (21) for an electrical conductor arranged with the back side (20d) as a single slot opening (24) constructed for the clamp body (30), whereby the clamp body is insertable in the clamp body receptacle (22) and exhibits a connecting piece (31) for the electrical conductor provided in the insulating housing (20), wherein the clamp body (30) connects to the insertion opening (21), whereby the clamp body (30) exhibits a threaded hole (32), in which a clamping screw (40) for clamping in a connection space (31) of the clamp body (30) in which the conductor may be inserted, whereby the clamp body receptacle (22) exhibits a recess (23), in which the clamping screw (40) with its screw head (41) comes to lie, whereby the clamp body (30) exhibits at least one electrical contact to produce an electrically conductive connection between the connection space (31) of the clamp body (30), receiving the inserted electrical conductor, and a circuit board, whereby the electrical contact is accessible through the base area (20a) of the housing (20) in the base area (20a), whereby at least one snap-in hook (26) is arranged, over which the insulating housing (20) after pushing onto the clamping body (30) is attachable to the clamp body (30).
