Abstract:
A method connects an electrical device ( 10 ), which has a tubular metal sheath ( 13 ) with protruding electrical conductors and contact sections ( 11, 12 ) connecting to contact sections ( 21, 22 ) of electrical conductors ( 23, 24 ) of a connection cable ( 20 ) by an insulating element ( 40, 140 ) that has receptacles ( 41, 42, 43, 44, 141, 142, 143, 144 ). The respective contact sections ( 11, 21, 12, 22 ) overlap one another or are adjacent to one another in the contact area ( 45, 48, 145, 148 ), and establish an electrical connection ( 51, 52 ) between the respective contact sections ( 11, 21, 12, 22 ). The electrical connection ( 51, 52 ) is established through an opening ( 46, 47, 49, 50, 146, 147, 149, 150 ), which forms an additional access to the contact area ( 45, 48, 145, 148 ). An electrical device ( 10 ) is provided with receptacles with the opening, which forms an additional access to the contact area.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for connecting an electrical device, which comprises a tubular metal sheath and contact sections of electrical conductors of the electrical device protruding from the tubular metal sheath on a front side and contact sections of electrical conductors of a connection cable, the method comprising the steps of:\n providing an insulating element, comprised of an electrically insulating material, with receptacles for insertion of at least one of the contact sections of the electrical conductors of the electrical device and of at least one of the contact sections of the electrical conductors of the connection cable, wherein the receptacles merge into one another in a contact area, and with at least one opening, which forms an additional access to the contact area; inserting the at least one of the contact sections of an electrical conductor of the electrical device and the at least one of the contact sections of the electrical conductor of the connection cable into the receptacles of the insulating element, so that the respective contact sections protrude into the contact area or overlap one another in the contact area or are adjacent to one another in the contact area; and establishing an electrical connection between the respective contact sections, wherein the electrical connection is established through the at least one opening which forms the additional access to the contact area.
