Abstract
A clamp with a housing, a contact rail and a slide having clamping jaws flanking the contact rail and an interconnecting fastener, for effecting electrical connections between spaced-apart conductors, has a guide member interposed between the housing and slide. The guide member is mounted to one of the clamping jaws and has an elongated surface in slidable engagement with a surface of the housing, a leg contacting the clamping jaws for force transmission and prevention of relative rotation of the clamping jaws, a shoulder contacting said one clamping jaw also for force transmission, a recess for receiving said one clamping jaw defined by the leg and shoulder, and releasable locking engagement means for securing the slide in a neutral position independent of the action of the fastener.
