[0002] In the power system, measuring the loop resistance of electrical equipment such as generator circuit breakers is an important test item. When measuring the loop resistance, a loop resistance measuring instrument is required to send a large excitation current to the device under test to accurately measure the loop resistance. This requires that the wiring terminals at both ends of the DC generator and the generator circuit breaker have a high current-carrying capacity.

[0003] At present, the commonly used wiring terminals are mainly connected to the DC generator by a conductive clip structure with a spring hinge. However, this structure relies on the elastic force of the spring for clamping, with poor stability and difficult to meet the requirements of large-current tests. With the development of the power system, the capacity and performance of electrical equipment are constantly improving, and the demand for loop resistance measurement is also increasing; the chaotic arrangement of wires is also likely to affect the test and clamping effects. Therefore, it is necessary to seek a new type of conductive clip structure to improve the stability of loop resistance measurement. Content of the Utility Model
