Abstract

A device for transferring current between two end points between which a ribbon cable (10) extends, the ribbon cable serving for an electric connection and being contained in a cassette in coiled form, the cable having at least two electric wires. Plug pins (12) are connected to bared wires of the ribbon cable (10), the pins being arranged in a prefabricated housing (G) of insulating material. The housing (G) consists of a base body (16) and a cover (17) which are locked to each other in the closed position of the housing (G). Projections (19) are arranged on the cover (17), the projections resting firmly against the plug pins (12) in order to fix the position of the plug pins in a closed position of the housing (G). The ribbon cable (10) is passed through a separating joint (T) disposed between the cover (17) and the base body (16), and is clamped therein in the closed position of the housing (G).
