Abstract
An electrical cable connector comprises a connector box, electrical contacts (2), to which electrical conductors of a cable (5) can be connected, and a strain relief device clasping a clamp (11) that annularly surrounds cable (5) and that can be tightly pressed against cable (5) by screwing a clamp sleeve (13) on a thread (8, 17) designed at the rear end of the connector box. An angle-box part (14) is designed that consists of at least two mutually connectable shells (15, 15′), each of which extends over a portion of the envelope of the angle-box part (14), when shells (15, 15′) are assembled, wherein shells (15, 15′) of the angle-box part (14) comprise, in the area of their front ends, a section of an internal thread (16), and these thread sections, when shells (15, 15′) of the angle-box part (14) are assembled, form an internal thread (16), which is exactly compatible with an external thread (8) in the area of the rear end of a front box part (1) retaining contacts (2), and shells (15, 15′) of angle-box part (14) in the area of their rear ends comprise a section of an external thread (17) on which clamp sleeve (13) can be screwed.
