Abstract

An electrical contact plug has a cable with a plurality of conductor cores connected thereto. A plug housing extends in the longitudinal direction and extends from a front contact region up to a rear insertion region. The cable is introduced into the plug housing in the rear insertion region and is surrounded by an injection-molded encapsulation. In order to avoid reliably the ingress of injection-molding compound into the front contact region during the injection-molding operation, the plug housing has a conical receptacle in the rear insertion region, with a cone element being formed as insert part in said conical receptacle, through which cone element the conductor cores are passed individually. Reliable and safe sealing of the conductor cores with respect to the contact region is performed via the cone element.
