Abstract
A device for the reversible mechanical fixing and electrical contacting of one or more electrical conductors (11) of a cable (10) it is proposed to fix the cable (10) mechanically by means of a cable receptacle (2) and to position exposed conductor ends (12) of the electrical conductor (11) on a contact plate (3). A fixing element (4) is provided for pressing the exposed conductor ends (12) onto the contact plate (3). Such a device and such a method are needed for the temporary electronic contacting of one or more electrical conductors carried in a cable. Such contacting is above all necessary for carrying out electrical measurements on such cables.
