- the solar modules mounted on the roofs are installed during assembly e.g. electrically connected to one another via plug connections.
- the solar modules and the associated cable connections are on the roofs prevailing there
- Cable connections make long-term and reliable contact over the long planned service life. It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide an electrical cable connection, in particular for use in photovoltaic systems, which permanently produces reliable electrical contact and is relatively easy to assemble.

- the spring device is designed in particular as a separate part and surrounds the conductor and the contact needle radially in the connected state. The spring device must not completely surround the contact needle and the conductor radially, but it is sufficient if the
- Spring means presses the contact pin and the conductor of two or more sides together to make a reliable and permanent contact.
- Spring means the insulating layer of the cable and presses over the insulating layer on the conductor contained therein and the contact needle inserted therein to exert permanent pressure on the conductor and the contact needle.
- the insulating layer in particular as a spring elastic
- the spring device surrounds the stripped conductor, in particular directly. A small radial gap in the unconnected state between the stripped conductor and the
- Gap between the conductor and spring device in the unconnected state ensures that the insertion of the stripped conductor in the spring device is easily possible.

- the slot ends abut each other or have a certain distance from each other.
- a helical slot which not only extends in the axial direction but spirally extends around the spring sleeve. This prevents even more reliable that individual wires of the conductor are forced out of the spring sleeve to the outside, whereby the pressing force of the spring sleeve would sink to the head and the contact needle received therein.
- the spring device is at least partially made of a metal.
- the spring device made of a resilient metal and
- Spring device consists of a plastic.
- a fiber composite material is possible. It is also possible that the spring device consists of a viscoelastic plastic.
- viscoelastic spring device brings either an outer sleeve or, for example, the terminal housing itself the required counterforce to apply the necessary spring force during insertion of the contact needle.
- Concentrically surrounding spring-loaded spring device with a sleeve arranged concentrically around it or the concentrically provided connection housing can absorb high forces, since the force is applied radially into the sleeve or into the connection housing and because the spring sleeve or the connection housing absorbs and dissipates this force along the circumference ,
- a thread is arranged on the contact housing, which is provided for, with a on the connection housing
- the contact housing has an internal thread and the connection housing has a
- Outer diameter is less than three or four times the outer diameter of a solar cable to be connected.
- the cable connection can also be laid in narrow channels, profiles and the like, whereby a particularly flexible application of the cable connection for the connection of solar modules of a photovoltaic system
