- the first housing element 100a and the second housing element 102a are fixed to one another in the initial state, specifically by means of a non-positive and/or positive connection, such as the present case with a latching connection.
- the termination namely the contacting of the line wire 20a clarifies.
- the contacting unit 26a contacts the line core 20a by means of the spring clamp connection.
- the contacting unit 26a makes contact in the initial state, namely in the closed state, by means of the further spring clamp connection, the further line core 21a.
- the spring clip 35a presses onto the line wire 20a and makes contact with it.
- the spring clip 35a presses the line wire 20a in the receiving channel 108a against the contact element 80a (cf. figure 12 ).
