Abstract:
Electrical connecting device for connecting a conductor located adjacent a base to a conductive strip carried by an insulating panel, comprising:a base member including a base attachment means for mechanical attachment of said base member to the base, and a connector means for electrically connecting the conductor to the base member, and a movable part which is freely movable relative to the base along a specified path in at least one direction of a plane, said part having a base coupling surface; a conductive member carried by the panel and electrically connected to the conductive strip, said conductive member projecting from a rear face of the panel and having a conductive coupling surface adapted to come into complementary contact with the base coupling surface formed on the base member; and a conductive attachment means for mechanically attaching the conductive member in contact with the base member, said conductive attachment means passing through the conductive member and including a clamping means for clamping the conductive member against said movable part of the base member in a docking direction which is perpendicular to the plane, and a control region which is accessible from a front face of the panel.
