Abstract

The invention relates to an electrical terminal connection, especially for connecting an outer conductor of a coaxial cable, characterized by the following novel developments: the electrical terminal connection is embodied in a two-stage manner; the plug-in element comprises at least two plug-in sections which are staggered in the plug-in and axial direction, both the first plug-in section in the plug-in direction and the following plug-in section being provided with a knurl on the outer periphery thereof; the receiving opening comprises a first receiving section and a second receiving section which are staggered in the plug-in and axial direction of the plug-in element; and the cross-sectional size of the two plug-in sections and the two complementary receiving sections differs in that the radial dimension or outer dimension of the plug-in sections provided with the knurl is slightly larger than the radial or outer dimension of the receiving section respectively co-operating therewith.
