Abstract
A connector with insulation displacement contacts for connecting electric conductors, in which the insulation displacement contacts are held in a carrier body and the electric conductors are guided in conductor guide channels of a conductor guide component. When the carrier body and conductor guide component are joined together the electric conductors are contacted by the insulation displacement contacts. The carrier body and conductor guide component are joined by means of an assembly tool constructed as a half-shell housing, in which bevels are provided which cooperate with bevels on the conductor guide component, so when the carrier body and the conductor guide component are pressed together in the half-shell housing, the carrier body and conductor guide component are pressed together by mutual displacement on the bevels.
