Abstract

An electrical connection system for a vehicle, comprising an elongated dielectric component (3) equipped with at least one electrode electrically connected to electrical contact pads (7), two dielectric half-shells (14) assembled face-to-face, electrical contact fingers (19) connecting with the pads, interposed between at least one half-shell and the component, a spring collar (21) surrounding the half-shells (14) to provide for holding them in position. The half-shells (14) include at the proximal part a pivot (23) such that the half-shells open angularly relative to one another, the half-shells (14) together include on the outside a bearing surface for a tubular body providing for bringing the half-shells together.
