Field device

An appliance terminal for connecting external lines to an electrical appliance features a current transformer module. The module has a current transformer integrated into the appliance terminal, wherein inputs of the current transformer are connected to customer-side terminal connections of the electrical appliance and outputs of the current transformer may be connected to circuit boards or modules of the electrical appliance via contact elements of the appliance terminal.

Appliance terminal

The invention provides a simple means of providing the front unit of an electrical device with a liquid crystal display element. A support film with strip conductors to electrical contact surfaces of the display element is configured specifically according to the device in terms of structure and the way in which the strip conductors are guided. The liquid crystal display element is mounted outside on a front panel, on a closed area and a cover film is pulled over at least this display element and the support film. The cover film is transparent at least in the area above the display element.
