ABSTRACT:
A modular terminal arrangement for connecting a conductor to a conductive cross bar (6), including a housing (1) formed of insulating material and arranged to transversely receive the cross bar, the housing including a terminal (2) adapted for connection with the conductor, a bus bar (4) connected at one end with the terminal and extending at its other end adjacent the cross bar, and a bridging member (7) adapted to connect the other end of the bus bar with the cross bar. The bridging member includes a pair of parallel spaced leg portions, the bridging member being displaceable between a connecting position in which the leg portions electrically engage the cross rail and extend at their free extremities in electrical engagement within an opening contained in the cross bar other end, and a disengaged position in which the leg portions are isolated from the bus bar.
