German term or phrase: Trennstromanbindung
Description of an acceleration sensor; related to my other query (durchtrennbar): "Der ... Trennbereich weist eine erste Stromleitung auf, welche mit der ... durchtrennbare Verankerungsstruktur verbunden ist, und eine zweite Stromleitung, welche mit der Biegefedereinrichtung ... verbunden ist. So läßt sich die Trennstromanbindung ohne viel Zusatzaufwand realisieren."

English translation:isolating current connection
Explanation:
Trennstrom = Isolating current
and can be used e.g. to switch off units in an emergency (see http://www.umwelt-online.de/recht/eu/85_89/86_663in.htm) or in this case to isolate a certain section from the rest.

See ref. below, very good

Anbindung = connection (can also be seen from the text)
