CONNECTING ELEMENT FOR CONTACTING A SHIELDING OF A POWER CABLE

摘要

The present invention relates to connecting element which is used for contacting an electrically conductive shield of a cable. A connecting element (100) for contacting a shielding layer or a plurality of shielding wires of a power cable according to the present invention comprises an electrically conductive contact element (102) for electrically contacting said shielding. Said contact element (102) comprises a plurality of contact protrusions (126) which in a mounted state protrude towards the shielding, said contact protrusions (126) being arranged in a plurality of rows (122) which have a distance from each other that extends, in a mounted state, circumferentially around said cable and a length that extends along said cable. Said rows (122) are arranged in a way that they form an angle (±) unequal zero with a longitudinal axis (120) of the cable.
