A screwless connecting terminal, in particular a modular terminal, is described. The terminal has a conductor rail situated in a terminal housing, an insulation-piercing connection connected in an electrically conductive fashion with the conductor rail, and between whose cutting edges, which face one another, an electrical conductor can be contacted that can be introduced into the terminal housing via a housing lead-through. An insulation-piercing contacting of the immovably positioned conductor takes place through a translational movement of the insulation-piercing connection along the conductor rail in a longitudinal direction of the rail. At least one bead is formed in at least one clamp limb of the insulation-piercing connection.

Screwless connecting terminal

A clamping spring for a spring terminal includes a fixed leg and an angular spring leg disposed resiliently on the fixed leg. An auxiliary spring leg is disposed resiliently on the fixed leg and acts with its spring force on the spring leg.

Clamping spring

A screwless terminal, especially a modular terminal ( ), with a conductor bar ( ) situated in a terminal housing ( ) and with an insulation displacement contact element ( ) electroconductively connected to the conductor bar ( ). An electrical conductor ( ) that is introduced via a housing lead-through can be contacted between the cutting edges ( ) of the insulation displacement contact element ( ) whereby the cutting edges ( ) face each other. The insulation displacement contact element ( ) is moveably arranged on the conductor bar ( ). Insulation displacement contacting of the fixedly position conductor ( ) is carried out by a translation movement of the insulation displacement contact element ( ) along the conductor bar ( ). An additional actuating element ( ) that engages with an actuating tool ( ) allows for careful handling during contacting of the conductor ( ) by avoiding a direct contact between the actuating tool ( ) and a contacting element ( ) comprising the insulation displacement contact element ( ).
