ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a connection terminal for connecting branch conduits to electric mains, preferably a ground lead. The connection terminal includes clamping elements which may be applied around the electric main, a contact element for establishing an electric contact between the electric main and the branch conduit, and a clamping device for clamping the clamping elements to each other and to the electric main in a safe position. The contact element includes an opening for inserting the branch conduit and a spring element having spring devices which are deformable by the branch conduit during insertion and which retain the position of the branch conduit as well as establish an electric contact between the contact element and branch conduit.
