Abstract:
An electric terminal block having a terminal housing, two conductor connection elements in the housing, and two current bars. Each current bar has a connection portion and a resilient contact portion. Each connection portion is paired with a respective conductor connection element, and the contact portions together form a contact region for receiving and contacting the plug of a test plug or disconnecting plug. The contact portions contact each other when no plug is plugged in such that the two conductor connection elements are electrically connected together via the two current bars. A transverse connection between two conductor connection elements of two adjacent terminal blocks is produced automatically when a test plug or disconnecting plug is plugged onto the terminal blocks. The terminal housing has two spring elements that have a resilient contact portion; the contact portions of the spring elements together form an additional contact region for the plug.

Claim (Index 18):
A block formed of a plurality of terminal blocks which, each of which comprises\n a terminal housing, at least two conductor connecting elements located in the terminal housing, and two conductor bars, each of which have a connecting section and at least one resilient contact section, each connecting section being associated with a respective conductor connecting element and the contact sections together forming a contact region for accommodating and making contact with a plug, and the contact sections having a basic position in which the connecting elements are electrically connected to one another via the two conductor bars and from which the contact sections are displaceable by insertion of a plug therebetween, and two spring elements located in the terminal housing, each spring element having a respective further resilient contact section, the contact sections of the two spring elements together forming another contact region for a plug which is located in a plug-in direction of the plug upstream of the contact region of the conductor bars, wherein at least one of the spring elements has a receiver for a leg of a plug-in jumper, wherein a respective spring element is connected in an electrically conductive manner to one of the conductor bars via the plug when the plug of an inserted test or isolating plug, and further comprising at least one plug-in bridge which has at least two legs, wherein in at least one spring element of a first of the terminal blocks and in the corresponding spring element of a second of the terminal blocks, a respective leg of the plug-in jumper is plugged so that the conductor connecting elements of the first and second electrical terminal blocks are connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner when a test isolating plug is plugged into the two terminal blocks.
