Abstract (en)

The device (1) includes an insulating support structure (3), two electrical connection terminals (4,5) fixed in spaced relation to this support structure (3), a guide stem (7) fixed orthogonally to the said structure (3) in a region intermediate between the terminals (4,5), a movable electrical connection bridge (8) displaceable along the stem (7) between a rest position and a working position in which it connects or respectively disconnects the terminals (4,5); a spring (14) tending to urge the connection bridge (8) towards its rest position, a control member (15) which can be operated manually to cause the connection bridge (8) to move from the rest position to the working position; a spring retaining device (20-24) for maintaining the control member (15) in the position in which it keeps the connection bridge (8) connected to the terminals (4,5); and a disengagement device (30-33) which can be operated to release the control member (15) from the associated retaining device (20-24) and allow the movable bridge (8) to be disconnected from the terminals (4,5) under the action of the spring (14). <IMAGE>
