  • Patent number: 7497720
    Abstract: A housing for connection to an electrical line (14), especially a bus line, with at least one first housing part (2a) and one second housing part (2b), with at least one locking system 6 for locking the first housing part (2a) with the second housing part (2b) in a common locking position, whereby a contact device (15) for making electrical contact with the line (14) is assigned to the first housing part (2a) and whereby at least one line bed (16) for guiding the line (14) is formed in the second housing part (2b). The line bed (16) is made—at least partially—in a line bed carrier (17), and the contact device (15) and the line bed carrier (17) can be turned such that the orientation of the line path can be adjusted with respect to the housing (2).
