Electrical equipment with automatic connection terminals

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrical apparatus (100) comprising a housing (110) provided with an insertion conduit (111) for an electrical conductor (1), said housing (110) housing: - an automatic connection terminal (120) comprising a spring blade (140) consisting of a metal strip with a holding branch (141) and a clamping branch (142) provided with a window (143), the clamping branch being movable between a waiting position in which its window is placed in line with the insertion conduit to open it and a clamping position in which it closes the insertion conduit, - disengageable retaining means (160) for the clamping branch in the waiting position, and - actuating means (146) shaped to be maneuvered by the electrical conductor inserted in the insertion conduit to disengage the retaining means and cause the clamping branch to move from its waiting position to its clamping position.According to the invention, said actuating means belong to said spring blade and comprise an actuating branch which extends in the extension of the conduit, its free end being folded to form a blade (148B) which has an interaction surface for the support of a stripped end of the electrical conductor introduced into the insertion conduit.
