Conductor connection device for connecting an electrical conductor to a printed circuit board, comprising a main body having a conductor receptacle accessible through a conductor receiving opening for inserting a section of the conductor into the conductor receptacle, the conductor receiving opening being arranged at a first outer side of the main body, a contact element in the form of a contact pin adapted to electrically and mechanically connect the main body to a printed circuit board, the contact element being arranged at a second outer side of the main body, and a conductor clamping element adapted to clamp the section of the conductor in a clamping direction within the conductor receptacle, wherein the conductor clamping element is accessible via the second outer side of the main body, characterised in that: a transition zone protrudes from the second outer side of the main body in a direction opposite to the clamping direction; a shoulder surface is formed at the transition zone and faces in the same direction as the second outer surface, the shoulder surface serves for supporting the conductor connection device at the printed circuit board; the transition zone is formed as a lug or projection which tapers in a direction opposite to the clamping direction; and both the contact element and a small platform or step, a flat top of which essentially constitutes the shoulder surface, protrude from the transition zone in parallel to each other in a direction opposite to the clamping direction. a main body having a conductor receptacle accessible through a conductor receiving opening for inserting a section of the conductor into the conductor receptacle, the conductor receiving opening being arranged at a first outer side of the main body, a contact element in the form of a contact pin adapted to electrically and mechanically connect the main body to a printed circuit board, the contact element being arranged at a second outer side of the main body, and a conductor clamping element adapted to clamp the section of the conductor in a clamping direction within the conductor receptacle, wherein the conductor clamping element is accessible via the second outer side of the main body, characterised in that: a transition zone protrudes from the second outer side of the main body in a direction opposite to the clamping direction; a shoulder surface is formed at the transition zone and faces in the same direction as the second outer surface, the shoulder surface serves for supporting the conductor connection device at the printed circuit board; the transition zone is formed as a lug or projection which tapers in a direction opposite to the clamping direction; and both the contact element and a small platform or step, a flat top of which essentially constitutes the shoulder surface, protrude from the transition zone in parallel to each other in a direction opposite to the clamping direction. a transition zone protrudes from the second outer side of the main body in a direction opposite to the clamping direction; a shoulder surface is formed at the transition zone and faces in the same direction as the second outer surface, the shoulder surface serves for supporting the conductor connection device at the printed circuit board; the transition zone is formed as a lug or projection which tapers in a direction opposite to the clamping direction; and both the contact element and a small platform or step, a flat top of which essentially constitutes the shoulder surface, protrude from the transition zone in parallel to each other in a direction opposite to the clamping direction.
