ABSTRACT:
An electrical terminal has a housing including at least one side wall with two elongated holes, the two elongated holes are positioned spaced apart on a common circular path. The terminal also includes a busbar and at least two insulation piercing elements which produce electrical contact between the inserted conductor and the busbar. The electrical terminal includes at least two actuating elements arranged so as to turn relative to the insulation piercing elements in the electrical terminal. The actuating elements further includes two journals. Each journal is located in a corresponding one of the elongated holes and is restricted so that the actuating element, when pivoted out of a first position in which the insertion of an incoming conductor is possible into a second position in which the conductor makes contact with the insulation piercing element, is guided and restricted by the movement of the journals within the elongated holes.
