Cable-connection or joining device for multi-core cables, has ends of insulation-piercing terminals covered by touch protection elements

摘要

A cable-connection or joining device for electrically conducting connection of a multi-cored cable to an electrical appliance or for similarly connecting two multi-cored cables. The ends of the cores making contact with the insulation-piercing terminals (6) and the associated insulation-piercing terminals (6) extend at an angle of less than 180 degrees and the insulating-piecing terminals (6) pierce the core insulation of the core-ends when the union or cap nut is screwed up. At least the ends of the insulation piercing terminals (6) are covered partly by touch protection elements (19).
