  • a terminal contact is bent downwards opposite to the extension direction of the clamping leg, so that the terminal contact protrudes from the insulating material in the installed state.
  • a material flap is exposed from the base portion and bent out in the direction of the clamping leg.
  • This material flap forms an overload stop for the clamping leg, so that the clamping leg abuts the overload stop when moving in the direction of the base section. In this way, excessive compression of the spring bow, including the spring properties, is avoided.
  • the overload stop also serves as a stop for a mounting tool, so that the conductor clamping element can be guided into the interior of the insulating housing and wedged there.
