Abstract
An electrical connecting terminal with a connecting terminal housing has on its wide side a housing wall and bus bars running one above the other are disposed in the housing configured for connecting conductor connections arranged on opposite sides of the connecting terminal housing. The conductor connections are arranged laterally offset to each other in the longitudinal direction of the bus bars. The bus bars are connectable to each other by mean of an electrical component. To ensure that uncurved plates with the simplest geometry can be used as potential connectors between two bus bars arranged one above the other, at least one bus bar is curved in its course between the conductor connections in the direction of the housing wall.
