(54) Branching part for an electrical network


(57) The invention relates to a branching part (3) for an electrical network comprising: a multi-pole input (5) for receiving a multi-pole plug-in connector (4), a multi-pole output (6) for receiving a second multi-pole plug-in connector (4), means for connecting the respective input (5) and output (6) poles to one another, and a second output (7) including at least a first conductive element (8). In order to simplify and expedite the electrical installation work the branching part further comprises: at least two optional contact parts (11 to 13) connected to the respective input poles (5), and a connecting part (15) through which the conductive element (8) of the second output (7) can be connected to one of said optional contact parts (11 to 13) for establishing contact between the conductive element (8) and the input pole (5) corresponding to the selected contact part.
