Abstract

An electric plug connector (1) comprises a contact element (5, 6), for forming an electrical connection to a corresponding mating contact element, and a contact insert (7, 8) comprising a chamber (70, 80) for introducing and for receiving the contact element (5, 6), the chamber (70, 80) having an end-face opening (72, 82) for introducing the mating contact element. Also provided is a fastening member (10), which is configured and arranged in such a way that the contact element (5, 6) is fixable in the contact insert (7, 8) by locking engagement. The locking method for fixing the contact element (5, 6) in the contact insert (7, 8) allows rapid assembly of the plug connector.
