Abstract
An electrical switching device having at least one pole includes a housing of an insulating material, and an incoming terminal contact and an outgoing terminal contact associated with a first pole. Each of the terminal contacts includes a first connection device for connection of a first external electrical conductor. At least one of the terminal contacts includes a second connection device for pluggable connection of a second electrical conductor.
Claims12
An electrical switching device having at least one pole, the electrical switching device comprising:
- a housing including an insulating material;
- and
- an incoming terminal contact and an outgoing terminal contact associated with a first pole, each of the terminal contacts including a respective first connection device configured for connection of a respective first external electrical conductor and a respective fixed contact, at least one of the terminal contacts including a respective second connection device disposed inside the housing and configured for pluggable connection of a respective second electrical conductor between the respective first connection device and the fixed contact, wherein the respective second connection device includes at least one of a receiving hole and a lateral cutout configured to receive a respective male contact connected to the respective second electrical conductor.
An electrical switching device having at least one pole, the electrical switching device comprising:
- a housing including an insulating material;
- and
- an incoming terminal contact and an outgoing terminal contact associated with a first pole, each of the terminal contacts including a respective first connection device configured for connection of a respective first external electrical conductor and a respective fixed contact, at least one of the terminal contacts including a respective second connection device disposed inside the housing and configured for pluggable connection of a respective second electrical conductor between the respective first connection device and the respective fixed contact, wherein the respective first connection device includes at least one of a screw clamp terminal, a spring clamp terminal, and an insulation-piercing terminal.
An electrical switching device having at least one pole, the electrical switching device comprising:
- a housing including an insulating material;
- and
- an incoming terminal contact and an outgoing terminal contact associated with a first pole, each of the terminal contacts including a respective first connection device disposed inside the housing and configured for connection of a respective first external electrical conductor, at least one of the terminal contacts including a respective second connection device disposed inside the housing and configured for pluggable connection of a respective second electrical conductor, wherein the respective second connection device includes at least one of a receiving hole and a lateral cutout configured to receive a respective male contact connected to the respective second electrical conductor;
- wherein each of the terminal contacts includes a respective contact carrier, a respective connecting point for housing-internal contacting being disposed at a first end of the respective contact carrier, the respective first connection device being disposed at a second end of the respective contact carrier;
- and
- wherein the respective second connection device is disposed between the respective connecting point and the respective first connection device.
An electrical switching device having at least one pole, the electrical switching device comprising:
- a housing including an insulating material;
- and
- an incoming terminal contact and an outgoing terminal contact associated with a first pole, each of the terminal contacts including a respective first connection device disposed inside the housing and configured for connection of a respective first external electrical conductor, at least one of the terminal contacts including a respective second connection device disposed inside the housing and configured for pluggable connection of a respective second electrical conductor, wherein the respective second connection device includes at least one of a receiving hole and a lateral cutout configured to receive a respective male contact connected to the respective second electrical conductor;
- wherein the housing includes an access area configured to provide access to the respective second connection device, the access area being outlined by predetermined breaking points.
