Elastic connection terminal for an electric switch or junction device, comprising an elastic loop placed on a conducting part and an auxiliary part capable of forming a stop for the end of the cable. The assembly and behaviour of the terminal are improved by placing an auxiliary partin contact with the back of the support stripof the conducting part. The partis provided with at least on attachment element, for example a lug, engaged with the connection region of the support strip, and guide panels for the cable. The guide panels extend close to the connection area and they have a slope adapted to the curved shape of the loopso as to guide it.

Elastic connection terminal

A protection and control assembly includes a power terminal block having openings, and electrical switch devices having input side conducting connection strips and output side conducting connection strips that project from a horizontal connection area on the input side and output side, respectively, of the electrical switch devices along a vertical axis. The electrical switch devices are positioned adjacent to each other along a direction parallel to the vertical axis, and the power terminal block makes the electrical connection by clamping the output side conducting connection strips of a first electrical switch device with the input side conducting connection strips of a second electrical switch device.
