Abstract
A method connects an electrical device (10), which has a tubular metal sheath (13) with protruding electrical conductors and contact sections (11, 12) connecting to contact sections (21, 22) of electrical conductors (23, 24) of a connection cable (20) by an insulating element (40, 140) that has receptacles (41, 42, 43, 44, 141, 142, 143, 144). The respective contact sections (11, 21, 12, 22) overlap one another or are adjacent to one another in the contact area (45, 48, 145, 148), and establish an electrical connection (51, 52) between the respective contact sections (11, 21, 12, 22). The electrical connection (51, 52) is established through an opening (46, 47, 49, 50, 146, 147, 149, 150), which forms an additional access to the contact area (45, 48, 145, 148). An electrical device (10) is provided with receptacles with the opening, which forms an additional access to the contact area.
