Abstract
A connecting terminal includes a receiving body, a clamping element configured to clamp a conductor inserted into the connecting terminal against a busbar arranged in the connecting terminal, a first lever arm rotatably mounted on the clamping element, and a second lever arm rotatably mounted on the first lever arm. The second lever arm has an actuation region by way of which the second lever arm can be pivoted. The clamping element can be moved by the first lever arm into a clamping position and into a non-clamping position when the second lever arm is pivoted.
