Abstract

A connector (1) for two electrical energy cables is indicated. The connector (1) has a plug (2) and a socket (3) which each is able to be tightly connected and suitable to produce a releasable electrical contact between the conductors. The socket (3) has hollow space (12) running in the longitudinal direction and the plug (2) a protruding bolt (11) in the longitudinal direction which is pluggable in the hollow space (12). The hollow space (12) and the bolt (11) have the identical truncated conical shape to each other, so that the bolt (11) is fixable in the hollow space (12) in the operative position. The connector (1) has further a pin (15, 18) so arranged that its axis is right angled to a connector axis (10) of the connector (1) and interacts with a circumferential recess (17, 18) around the diameter of the bolt (11).
