conductor connection terminal

Abstract

A conductor terminal (1) with at least one spring-loaded clamping terminal (10) for connecting an electrical conductor (9) by means of spring force, wherein the conductor terminal (1) has an insulating housing (2) in which the at least one spring-loaded clamping terminal (10) is arranged, wherein the at least one spring-loaded clamping terminal (10) has at least one clamping spring (4) with a clamping leg (43) and a busbar (3) which has a contact section (30) which together with the clamping leg (43) forms a clamping point for clamping the electrical conductor (9), wherein the insulating housing (2) has a conductor passage opening (20) through which the electrical conductor (9) clamped at the clamping point extends out of the insulating housing (2), wherein a conductor receiving channel (23) adjoins the conductor passage opening (20) in the insulating housing (2) in which the electrical conductor (9) is received when it is clamped at the spring-loaded clamping terminal (10). is clamped,characterized in that the conductor receiving channel (23) has a side opening (21) on at least one side, through which the conductor receiving channel (23) is open laterally from the conductor passage opening (20) continuously to the clamping point or in the direction of the clamping point, wherein an electrical conductor (9) to be clamped can be inserted into the conductor receiving channel (23) from the side through the side opening (21) by means of a lateral insertion movement (E) in the direction of the contact section.
