Abstract
A releasable electrical contact connection is formed between a first plug part and a complementary second plug part. The first plug part has an electrically conductive screw bolt on which a cable end can be mechanically and electrically connected by a threaded nut, the cable end and the threaded nut being part of the second plug connector. The cable end and the threaded nut are disposed in an insulating plug housing of the second plug part and are held movably in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the screw bolt in the plug housing, in order to establish or release the electrical and mechanical connection. The threaded nut can be rotated from outside the plug housing. The plug housing is surrounded by an insulating housing wall of the first plug part.
