Abstract

Provided a connector for establishing an electrical connection between an electrical conductor and a printed circuit board. The connector includes an insulating element which has a plurality of cavities for accommodating contact elements. The printed circuit board can be inserted in the connector via a slot in a connection face of the insulating element and can be connected to the first contact faces of the contact element provided in the connection face. Opposite the first contact face, the contact elements have a second contact face which is provided for the insulation-piercing contacting of the electrical conductor. The arrangement of the contact elements in the insulating element allows a particularly space-saving design of the connector.
