Abstract
A contact terminal, by means of which an annular connector or two connectors may be gripped, is described. The contact terminal comprises a housing with a pivotally mounted terminal element which may be biased onto a contact face mounted on the housing at a contact region. A holding element is provided in the contact region, to prevent a connector inserted into the contact terminal from being pulled out in the lateral direction. The terminal element has a terminal face to grip the connector against the contact face.
