Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connection adapter for connecting at least one conductor end to a terminal of a commercially available electrical switching component, in particular a contactor.
  • Electrical switching components such as contactors or relays, are widely used in the art and are used in many fields, such as mechanical and plant engineering.
  • the switching devices are used to provide greater efficiency, e.g. to drive a motor, to switch.
  • These switching and power are applied to input and output contacts of the switching components.
  • the input and output contacts Via electrical lines, the input and output contacts to a consumer, e.g. the engine, and to a control device, such as e.g. a pushbutton or a PLC, connected.

  • the switching components are mounted in a control cabinet or on a mounting plate, for example screwed or locked on a mounting rail.
  • a mounting plate for example screwed or locked on a mounting rail.
  • the density of the switching components in the control cabinet is as large as possible. The space for connecting the lines between the switching components is thus small, so that installing the lines in the terminals can be tedious and time consuming.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to simplify the wiring of the commercial switching components so that the assembly time can be reduced and installation costs can be saved.
  • connection adapter for connecting at least one conductor end to a terminal of an electrical switching device, in particular a contactor, with at least one clamping contact having a clamping device in which the conductor end by means of a clamping force can be fixed and electrically conductively connected to the terminal contact, and with at least one plug which is repeatedly releasably inserted into the terminal and a plug when inserted with the terminal electrically connected plug contact, wherein the connection adapter on the switching component repeatedly releasably and attachably ausgestaltetes separate Component forms.
  • the solution according to the invention has the advantage that during the assembly of the switching components, first the line with the connection adapter and then the connection adapter is inserted into the switching component installed in the switching cabinet. If there is enough space outside the control cabinet, the cable can be connected to the connection adapter very quickly. Subsequently, the connection adapter with the plug is inserted into the switching component in the control cabinet. It has been found that the switching elements can be wired faster compared to the previous connection procedure and thus reduce the installation costs.
  • connection adapter according to the invention has the advantage that the wired and installed in the cabinet switching device, for example, in case of a defect, can be replaced very quickly and easily.
