Abstract:
1. A cable connecting device for fixing power cables and for producing an electrical connection between power cables, said cable connecting device comprising a bush which has at least two cylindrical cavities into which in each case a contact-making element can be inserted, which has a contact sleeve serving to accommodate one end of a power cable and having contact-making bands on its outer side and has a locking device which, after the contact sleeve has been inserted into the cavity, secures said contact sleeve in its place; it being possible for the power cable to be electrically conductively connected to the contact sleeve and clamped in the latter by means of at least two screws on the outer side which can be screwed into the circumferential wall of the contact sleeve, wherein the screws are distributed over the outer circumference of the contact sleeve along an imaginary spiral in such a way that they can be screwed onto the power cable at different angles around a central longitudinal axis of said sleeve relative to one another.
