Abstract
The invention relates to a contacting or connection terminal for electrically connecting at least one conductor (26) and at least one electrical contact body, said terminal having a housing (2) in which the contact body is arranged, and at least one pressing member (3), wherein the electrical contact body comprises a clamping conductor connector for the at least one electrical conductor (26) and has at least one punched part (5), said punched part (5) having at least one spring element (6) for the clamping conductor connector. An actuation of the pressing member (3) acts on the spring element (6) and enables an opening of the clamping conductor connector, wherein the opening path of the clamping conductor connector (WF), due to actuation of the pressing member (3), is greater than the pressing member path (WD), at least in one portion. The invention also relates to a circuit board and a luminaire with a contacting or connection terminal according to the invention.
