Abstract

An electrical terminal or coupling connector with two spatially separated terminal connections for electrical conductors and having contact elements assigned to the connections comprises at least two parts (2, 3), each of which has at least one connection part (14, 16), and which are positively joined together to make a single unit. At least one connection (18) of this single unit is in the form of a slit-blade insulation piercing connector arranged for automatic wiring. At the same time, the single unit has devices (50, 51) for positive coupling with other single units of the same or different function.
