A device assembly capable of selectively bonding one or more tracer wires to ground and isolating the one or more tracer wires from ground is provided. The device assembly includes a housing, an electrical switch within the housing and one or more contact assemblies. The one or more tracer wires and ground wire are connected to the one or more contact assemblies. The electrical switch can connect the tracer wires to the ground wire and can isolate the tracer wires from the ground wire.

A conductor element includes a conductor lamina designed to electrically connect together two wires and a substantially vertical shaped body extending in the longitudinal direction. The substantially vertical shaped body including a bottom body section having a bottom free edge, a first end, a second end, and a flat-lamina spring. The bottom free edge extends in the longitudinal direction for resting in the vertical direction on a DIN-standard rail. The first end includes a tooth to engage with one of the two folded flanges of the DIN standard rail (B). The second end is opposite to the first end and is designed for engaging and retaining the flat-lamina spring. The flat-lamina spring includes a head and two flat-pins legs for engagement with the other folded flange of the rail.

The invention relates to a device 1 for contacting electrical conductors and/or electrical plug connectors, said device comprising at least one front housing part 2 and a rear housing part 3, wherein the front housing part 2 and the rear housing part 3 are formed as one unit, wherein at least one first electrical contact connection is provided in the front housing part via contacting points 7, and at least one additional electrical contact connection is provided in the rear housing part 3 via contacting points 9, wherein a step 6 is formed between the front housing part 2 and the rear housing part 3 on one side of the device 1, and wherein contacting points 8 are provided in the region of the step 6 for the purposes of electrical contacting. The invention also relates to a lamp or an electrical device having a device of this type.

A grounding spacer is provided. The grounding spacer comprising a circular body having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a central aperture, and a plurality of radially spaced penetration features, wherein at least one of the penetration features has at least a portion thereof extending from the top surface, and wherein at least one of the penetration features has at least a portion thereof extending from the bottom surface.

Disclosed is a device capable of preventing a short circuit even in the event of flooding. A terminal polarity fixing unit is disposed between an input terminal unit and an output terminal unit such that a first output terminal and a second output terminal are electrically connected to a neutral terminal and to a phase voltage terminal, respectively, all the time, regardless of how first and second input terminals are paired with the phase voltage terminal and the neutral terminal of an alternating-current outlet. First and second connecting terminals are electrically insulated from each other and spaced apart from each other while being exposed to one side of a body unit of a connecting terminal block made from an insulating body, and electrically connect the first and second output terminals to a load. A short circuit prevention conductor is connected to the first connecting terminal, which is in turn connected to the neutral terminal but is not connected to the second connecting terminal, and is arranged in the vicinity of the second connecting terminal so as to surround at least a portion of the side of the connecting terminal block, at least a portion of the upper portion of the connecting terminal block, and at least a portion of each of the side and upper parts of the connecting terminal block. When the connecting terminal block is flooded, the electric current flowing out of the second connecting terminal flows into the short circuit prevention conductor via the water, and an electric current sufficient for causing an electric shock does not flow to other sites.

An earth-conducting element includes a conductor lamina designed to electrically connect together two wires and a substantially vertical shaped body extending in the longitudinal direction. The substantially vertical shaped body including a bottom body section having a bottom free edge, a first end, a second end, and a flat-lamina spring. The bottom free edge extends in the longitudinal direction for resting in the vertical direction on a DIN-standard rail. The first end includes a tooth to engage with one of the two folded flanges of the DIN standard rail B. The second end is opposite to the first end and is designed to form a means for engaging and retaining the flat-lamina spring. The flat-lamina spring includes a head and two flat-pins legs for engagement with the other folded flange of the rail.

A vehicular circuit body includes a trunk line that includes a power source line and a communication line, and that is routed in a vehicle body; and a plurality of control boxes that are disposed in a distribution manner along the trunk line. The trunk line includes a first trunk line portion extending in a front-and-rear direction of the vehicle body and a second trunk line portion extending in a leftward-and-rightward direction of the vehicle body. The plurality of control boxes include a branch control box that connects the first trunk line portion and the second trunk line portion, and distributes power from one of the first trunk line portion and the second trunk line portion to the other one.
