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 (C) 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 (C); 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 (C); 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 (C). 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 (C) 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 (C); 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 (C); 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 (C). a transition zone protrudes from the second outer side of the main body in a direction opposite to the clamping direction (C); 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 (C); 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 (C). <EOS>
