Abstract

A plug part, in particular a cable harness plug, for producing an electrical plug connection to a further plug part, includes a housing, a contact carrier situated in the housing, as well as a gel or silicon multipole seal situated on the side facing away from the plugging direction. To enable the contacts situated in the contact carrier to be automatically inserted, it is provided that a flat surface is formed on the side facing away from the plugging direction, i.e., on the outgoing side of the cable, so that no interfering contour exists for the automatic insertion gripper. For this purpose, it is provided that a flat holding plate having insertion openings and being able to latch to the contact carrier is provided on the multipole seal, on the side of the plug part facing away from the plugging direction, locking arms hinged to and extending away from the holding plate being formed in the plugging direction of the plug part.
