The clamping spring has an abutment section and a clamping section with a clamping edge for clamping the electrical conductor. The abutment section is arranged on the base section of the power rail piece. The freely movable end of the clamping section extends toward the cover section. An actuation section which is accessible to an actuation tool lies adjacent to the clamping edge in the direction of the side wall.
