Abstract

Ein elektrischer Verbinder (8), der folgendes aufweist: an seiner Vorderseite erste Anschlüsse (12), an denen externe elektrische Leiter angebracht werden können, um zwischen den Leitern und den ersten Anschlüssen (12) elektrische Verbindungen herzustellen. Eine Montagebaugruppe (14) auf der Rückseite des Verbinders (8) nimmt Überspannungsschutzvorrichtungen (18) auf, so daß diese elektrisch an die ersten Anschlüsse (12) angekoppelt sind, um für einen Überspannungsschutz für elektrische Stromkreise zu sorgen, die bei Verwendung an die ersten Anschlüsse (12) angekoppelt sind. Lösbare Montagemittel (20) verbinden den Verbinder (8) lösbar mit der Stützstruktur (22) für den Verbinder.

Figure 00000001
An electrical connector (8) comprising: on its front side first connections (12) to which external electrical conductors can be attached in order to establish electrical connections between the conductors and the first connections (12). A mounting assembly (14) on the back of the connector (8) receives surge protectors (18) so that they are electrically coupled to the first terminals (12) to provide surge protection for electrical circuits which, when used, the first Connections (12) are coupled. Detachable mounting means (20) releasably connect the connector (8) to the support structure (22) for the connector.
