The present invention relates to a method for connecting a conductor (1) comprising a base metal to a terminal element (2)comprising copper, and to a terminal assembly(18) with a conductor (1) comprising a base metal and with a terminal element (2)which comprises copper and which is connected to the conductor (1). In order to reliably connect a conductor (1) comprising a base metal and a terminal element (2)comprising copper to one another both mechanically and in an electrically conductive manner, it is envisaged according to the invention that the conductor (1) and/or the terminal element (2)is coated, at least at the weld joint (5, 10), with a copper alloy or a mixture comprising copper and at least one base metal, before the conductor (1) and the terminal element (2)are welded onto one another. In this manner, a terminal assembly(18) can be produced which satisfies the strict requirements for use in the automotive industry and in which the conductor (1) is welded to the terminal element (2), wherein the weld seam (19) has a layer of a copper alloy or of a mixture comprising copper and at least one base metal. |
