Abstract

A cable connecting device includes a bush which has at least two cylindrical cavities, into which, in each case, a contact-making element can be inserted. The contact-making element has a contact sleeve and has maintains contact-making bands on its outer side and has a locking device which, after the contact sleeve has been inserted into the cavity, secures the contact sleeve in its place. The power cable is connected to the contact sleeve and clamped in the latter by means of at least two screws on the outer side, which can be screwed into the I wall of the contact sleeve, where the screws are distributed over the circumference of the contact sleeve along an imaginary spiral so that that they can be screwed onto the power cable at different angles around a central longitudinal axis of the sleeve relative to one another.
