Abstract

A plug, in particular an igniter plug, which has a damping element on a contact element of the plug is described. In order to assemble it the damping element has a passageway, which is substantially matched to the crimp region of the contact element in cross-section. As a result of the arrangement of the damping element on the contact element, a small construction of the plug is made possible. Preferably, the crimp regions are arranged outside the plug housing, so that it is possible to install the cables later without having to open the plug housing.
