A leadthrough adapter for connecting the components installed in a switchgear cabinet to external electric conductors. The adapter is located in a wall of the switchgear cabinet housing and one or more bushings are situated on the face of the adapter. The bushings can be accessed from the outside of the switchgear cabinet and plug-in connectors can be inserted into the bushings in order to connect the external electric conductors. Electric and/or electronic functional parts for the components that are accommodated inside the switchgear cabinet are arranged directly on the back of the adapter which faces towards the inside of the switchgear cabinet.

An input/output module for a data bus includes an insulating housing that is secured on a support rail, with the housing being provided with terminals to receive wires of the bus at side-by-side positions on a surface of the housing. The housing is mounted so that it can swivel with respect to a supporting rail. A printed circuit board can be inserted like a drawer into the housing, and once the printed circuit board is completely inserted, the electronic components on the printed circuit board are electrically connected to the bus.
