Abstract

A terminal device for connecting an electrical conductor to another unit, e.g. in the form of a terminal strip, comprises a passage for inserting the insulation-stripped end of the conductor which is inclined to another passage in which a clamping screw is received. The screw has a conical nonthreaded portion which bears against the conductor when the screw is tightened and where the passages meet.
