Abstract: A connector for electrically connecting to a conductor, the connector including a terminal provided with an electrical contact made of an electrically conducting material, a clamping element for clamping the conductor against the electrical contact and an actuator. A conducting element extends from the electrical contact. The clamping element is movable by the actuator between clamping element open and closed configurations. The actuator is configurable between first and second configurations. In the first configuration, the actuator is only operable to move the clamping element towards the closed configuration. In the second configuration, the actuator is operable to move the clamping element towards the open configuration.
