Abstract

An electrical connecting device connects a conductor to a conductive strip carried by an insulating panel. The connecting device includes a base member having a mechanical attachment to a support, and a connector for electrically connecting the conductor to the base member. A conductive member is carried by the panel and is connected to the conductive strip. The conductive member projects along a rear face of the panel and has a surface for coupling to the base member. A mechanism mechanically attaches the conductive member in contact with the base member. The mechanism passes through the conductive member and includes a control region which is accessible from the front face of the plate.
