A terminal for at least one electrical conductor, comprising a terminal socket and a clamping spring, wherein a clamping force applied by the clamping spring clamps the electrical conductor to the terminal socket, and wherein a screw coupled to a support element is provided, by which at least one section of the clamping spring is movable relative to the terminal socket.

Terminal having a clamping spring

An apparatus and a method for the processing of a plurality of tasks by a processor of a real-time data processing installation, in which each task is dynamically allocated a priority according to its urgency, after which the tasks are processed by a processor. For this purpose, for each task to be processed, the generation of an initiation cell having a number of t- and i-bits is provided, as is the entering of this initiation cell into a free cell of a contention unit. The time sequence information contained in the t-bits of all cells of the contention unit are compared with one another in order to determine the task containing the smallest time sequence information. In case the determined task does not agree with the previously determined task, an interrupt signal is sent to the processor in order to introduce the processing of this newly determined task.
