This is compensated by the fact that almost the entire theoretically possible contact area between the first and second contact surfaces of the first and second contact sections is used for producing an electrical connection by a corresponding shape of the spring element.
- the first and the second contact portion are connected to each other by a positive engagement, which is produced by a displacement of the first contact portion relative to the second contact portion parallel to the planes of the first and the second contact surface, wherein by a force generated by the spring element perpendicular to the planes of the first and second contact surface, a release of the two contact portions is prevented.
- a positive engagement which is produced by a displacement of the first contact portion relative to the second contact portion parallel to the planes of the first and the second contact surface, wherein by a force generated by the spring element perpendicular to the planes of the first and second contact surface, a release of the two contact portions is prevented.
- the first and / or the second contact section has at least one recess into which associated first tabs of the other contact section project, which lie in the plane or parallel to the plane of the other contact section.
- a positive connection is provided outside the contact surfaces or sections, which provide the desired two-day structure of the invention.

- the second connection part is preferably made of copper (Cu) or nickel (Ni) or alloys thereof.
- Cu copper
- Ni nickel
- other materials or material combinations are conceivable.
- the aforementioned preferred materials have already proven themselves in HS connectors, so that no contact deterioration is to be expected even over long periods of use.
- the electrical conductors are welded to a respective connecting portion of the first and / or the second connecting part or are connected by means of a crimp connection.
- the electrical conductors may be formed, for example, in the form of cables or strands or foils.
- the spring element has a number of fins.
- the fins the spring properties of the spring element are favored.
- a secure and large-area contact between the contact portions of the first and second connecting element can be ensured by the number of fins, whereby the desired current carrying capacity is provided.
