Abstract

A connection module arrangeable on a connection side of a main casing of a power switch comprises a plurality of connection spaces limited by a removable covering cap and by lateral separation walls. When the connection module is mounted, connection bars provided with a through hole and arranged in the main casing are projected into the connection spaces, which are provided with lateral guiding elements formed in the separation walls for frame terminals surrounding the connection bars and for guiding elements on bottom side for screw plates placed under the connection bars. A cylindrical reception area coaxially extends with respect to the associated through hole from each connection space bottom and is closed on a bottom side by a breakable wall part and receives a connection sleeve through the broken wall part in such a way that the connection sleeve is at least indirectly connected to the associated connection bar.
