Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9826474A1] In modules (M, M') adjacent to each others, fitted with an electric apparatus, contact elements (KEP) are mounted which engage matching recesses in the module casing, so that contact elements (KEP) can be contacted from outside, i.e. by a similar contact element (KEP) of the adjacent module (M, M'). The substantially U-shaped contact element (KEP) has a spring rod (SS) and a fixed rod (FS), while the spring rod (FS) of a first contact element (KEP) extends to touch the fixed rod (SS) of an adjacent contact element (KEP).
