Abstract

For an electrical connector for connecting insulated electrical conductors, preferably an electrical plug and socket connector, with contact elements disposed in chambers of a carrying base with cutting and insulation displacement connections for connection to the conductor, the conductors being introduced into the connector in the axial direction, relative to the contact elements, it is proposed that the conductors be pressed by means of a conductor guiding element, which is constructed as a pressure part, into the cutting and insulation displacement connections. At the same time, the conductors are pushed through a guiding borehole, in which they are deflected in such a manner, that they are guided obliquely through a recess in the conductor guiding element. When the carrying base and the conductor guiding element are joined together, the cutting and insulation displacement connections dip into these recesses and, in so doing, are connected with the conductors.
