Patent ID: 7311565

Claim:
A cable connection system, comprising a contact body which has first means on a cable connecting side for the purpose of producing a releasable electrical and mechanical connection with an end of a cable to be connected and is designed on a contact side for the purpose of providing an electrical contact, in particular a plugging contact, the first means comprising an essentially rotationally symmetrical, central clamping element, which is integrally formed on the contact body and tapers along an axis towards the cable end, and a clamping sleeve which concentrically surrounds the clamping element, can be screwed to the contact body in an axial direction and has an inner, essentially rotationally symmetrical clamping contour such that, when the clamping sleeve and the clamping element are screwed together, a stranded wire, which is inserted into an intermediate space between the clamping element and the clamping contour, of the cable to be connected is clamped, characterized in that the clamping element is in the form of a clamping cone, in that the clamping contour comprises a first section in which a limiting face of the clamping contour extends approximately parallel to a cone face of the clamping cone and has a rounded edge, and in that a clear width of the clamping sleeve in the region of the clamping contour is smaller than a maximum outer diameter of the clamping cone, wherein a marker recess is arranged on a side of the clamping cone which faces away from the cable, it being necessary for the clamping sleeve to be screwed onto the contact body up to said marker recess before the stranded wire of the cable is inserted into a clamping zone between the clamping cone and the clamping contour.
