Abstract

The electrical connecting element for a connecting of fine wire cables (strands) consists of a contact pin having preferably points at both its ends and a radially projecting abutment flange on the shaft of the pin which contact pin penetrates through insulations. A shoulder between tip and shaft ensures that the pin which has been pressed in can not be torn out and the flange acts for a limiting of the depth of penetration.
