A holding chamber for a connection module having one of the connection contacts is provided on the front side and/or on at least one of the connection sides.

A device (1) for accommodating an electrical or electronic component (400), in particular a relay socket for accommodating a relay, comprises a base body (100) with a receptacle (110) for the component (400). The device (1) also comprises at least one pair (300) of connecting terminals connected to the two electronic connections, wherein the pair (300) of connecting terminals comprises a first connecting terminal (310) for a first connecting wire and a second connecting terminal (320) for a second connecting wire. The first connecting terminal (310) is spaced apart from the receptacle (110) by a first distance in a first direction and the second connecting terminal (320) is spaced apart from the receptacle (110) by a second distance in the first direction, wherein the first distance and the second distance are different.

An electrical component is provided, comprising at least one plug-in socket for receiving an accommodated component, in particular a relay or an optocoupler, in or on the electrical component, the accommodated component having first electrical contact elements on its underside, for being electrically connected to second electrical contact elements of the electrical component, and wherein in an active position of the accommodated component, the first electrical contact elements are electrically connected with the second electrical contact elements of the electrical component on the plug-in socket, and comprising a manipulation means, by means of which the accommodated component can be more easily plugged into the active position in the plug-in socket and/or pulled out thereof, wherein the manipulation means has a spacing portion, and wherein a free end of the spacing portion protrudes beyond the electrical component and/or beyond the accommodated component that is inserted in the plug-in socket in the active position.

A test plug block (1) for plugging onto a series terminal block (2), comprising a plurality of test plugs (4) connected to one another and two fastening parts (5), which are arranged on both sides of the plurality of test plugs (4) and are connected to one another by means of a grip piece (6), the fastening parts (5) each having a housing (7) and an insertion portion (8), which can be inserted into a receiving portion (9), the receiving portion (9) being formed in the clamp housing (10) of a fastening clamp (11) of the series terminal block (2).

A terminal strip for latching onto a mounting rail includes a terminal housing that has a first connection side and a second connection side and a busbar arranged in the terminal housing. At least two conductor connection elements are arranged in the terminal housing. The conductor connection elements each connect at least one conductor to the busbar. Each conductor connection element has a first function shaft having at least one plug-in connection receiving region and at least a second function shaft having at least one screw-connection receiving region arranged on each of the two connection sides of the terminal housing. One connection region is formed for each plug-connection receiving region and for each screw-connection receiving region in the busbar. The function shafts of one connection side are arranged in a manner spaced apart from one another.

An electrical coupling device, such as a surge protector for a rail or other conductive structure, includes a pair of terminals, and a jumper for selectively electrically coupling and decoupling the terminals. Movement of the jumper may expose part of the jumper or one or both of the terminals, such as for use as a test point. A surge module with one or more surge protection features may fit into a base that includes the terminal and the jumper. The module may have an interface feature, such as a protruding post, that prevents engagement with the base if the base is not properly engaged with the rail or other structure. In one embodiment, a threaded rod may serve as the jumper and in one position electrically couples the terminals and in another position electrically decouples the terminals and one end of the threaded rod becomes exposed for use as a test point.

A terminal block includes a base, a support provided on the support, and a first terminal pair, a second terminal pair and a third terminal pair each supported by the support. A coupling line of the first electric wire is arranged along a first straight line, and a coupling line of the second electric wire is arranged along a second straight line. The base includes a support protrusion that extends to a coupling line of the third electric wire through between the coupling line of the first electric wire and the coupling line of the second electric wire and supports the coupling line of the third electric wire.

A plug-in connection arrangement for arranging a relay includes a terminal block comprising a relay holder configured to hold a relay. The relay has a bottom wall, a side wall, and a contact plug which projects out of the bottom wall. The side wall is arranged perpendicular to the bottom wall and includes an offset section which contacts the bottom wall and projects out into the relay in a direction of a surface normal of the side wall. The relay holder includes a socket configured to hold the contact plug of the relay when the relay is inserted into the relay holder. The relay holder also includes an insulating wall which, when the relay is inserted into the relay holder, is aligned parallel to the side wall and projects beyond the bottom wall to form an angled insulation section for the contact plug along a surface of the insulating wall.

A circuit breaker that may be plugged onto an electrical panel. The circuit breaker is preferably a low voltage circuit breaker in the range of 120-240 volts. The circuit breaker includes an electrical clip with a curved inner surface that contacts a curved outer surface of an electrical connector on the electrical panel. The circuit breaker includes a protrusion that prevents the circuit breaker from being installed in electrical panels without an electrical connector for the electrical clip to engage.

An assembly includes at least two disconnect terminals and at least one coupling device, wherein the at least two disconnect terminals each include at least one switching lever. Each switching lever is adjustable independently from the other switching lever from a first switch position into at least one second switch position and back, wherein the switching levers are connectable by the at least one coupling device. The at least one coupling device connects the switching levers if the at least one coupling device is switched into at least one first coupling position, and the at least one coupling device separates the switching levers from one another if the at least one coupling device is switched into at least one second coupling position. A disconnect terminal includes the at least one coupling device.
