Abstract
A device for detachably fastening a current conductor to a current transformer housing includes the current transformer housing, a retaining element that is guided through the current transformer housing, a fastening element that is guided through the retaining element, and a clamping element. The fastening element and/or the retaining element are seated against at least some regions of the surface of the current conductor when the current conductor is fastened to the current transformer housing. The fastening element can be rotated about the longitudinal axis thereof so as to fasten and/or detach the current conductor. The clamping element is arranged movably on the current transformer housing so that, in a first position, it allows a translatory displacement of the retaining element along the longitudinal axis. In a second position, the clamping element prevents the transtatory displacement of the retaining element along the longitudinal axis thereof.
