  • one or more electrical contact elements are arranged on the plug-in section of the frame part, which, when the plug connector part is connected to an associated, further plug connector part, come into electrical contact with contact elements of the further plug connector part, so that an electrical connection is established between the plug connector parts.
  • the earthing element can generally be used to ground between the connector parts, so that the connector parts have the same grounding potential when plugged in.
  • the frame part can also be grounded via the grounding element if it is made of an electrically conductive (metal) material.
  • a connector insert has several rows of contact elements.
  • the contact insert can be inserted into an attachment housing that is attached to a mounting wall.

  • the contacting device thus provides two slots for connecting two protective lines, although in principle it is also conceivable and possible to add even more slots, e.g. three or four slots for connecting more than two protective cables. In this way, several protective lines can be connected to the contacting device in a simple, convenient manner with reliable electrical contact with the grounding element and with a reliable mechanical hold.
  • Each spring element can be designed as described above and in particular have a clamping leg for locking and contacting the protective line.

  • the grounding element is thus attached to the frame part in such a way that there is a positive connection between the frame part and the grounding element and thus the grounding element is held on the frame part.
  • Such a positive connection can be established, for example, via an engagement section of the grounding element which is to be inserted into an engagement opening of the frame part and (additionally or alternatively) via a latching section which produces a snap connection to the frame part.
  • the engagement section can be inserted, for example, along the direction of insertion into the associated engagement opening of the frame part and provides a form fit between the Grounding element and the frame part transversely to the direction of insertion.
