Abstract

A power tool includes a receiving device having at least one first and second power consumption element. A power supply unit connectable to the power tool includes a connecting device having at least one first and second power output element, the receiving device being designed to receive and hold the connecting device, so that the power consumption elements and the power output elements are connectable. Both the first and second power consumption elements have a positive pole as well as a negative pole, and both the first and second power output elements have a positive pole as well as a negative pole. The positive pole of the first power consumption element and the positive pole of the second power consumption element as well as the negative pole of the first power consumption element and the negative pole of the second power consumption element are positioned at a distance from each other in at least one first and second direction.
