Abstract

The invention relates to a plug connector for making an electrical connection with a battery terminal. The plug connector comprises a housing formed by joining an upper shell and a lower shell with a contact lying within the housing. The contact has a helical spring contact and a contact strip bent to form a cylindrical region. The upper shell and the lower shell each have a holding element extending within the cylindrical region formed by the contact strip, in order to form a recess for holding the helical spring contact.
