A fixation device for fixing a contact element within a connector. The device includes a housing defining a contact element receptacle for receiving a contact element and a support face defining a deflection surface for supporting the contact element within the housing, and a clamping device for clamping the contact element in the contact element receptacle with a clamping force directed in a clamping direction. The deflection surface is oriented at an angle relative to the clamping direction such that it deflects a component or portion of the clamping force acting upon the contact element in a direction transverse to the clamping direction.

A method for manufacturing a wiring system includes providing an electric cable having an electric conductor and a contact element with a termination portion, and removing a cable insulation in a first sub-portion of the electric cable. The cable insulation remains on the electric conductor in a second sub-portion of the electric cable offset from the first sub-portion. The electric conductor is welded at the first sub-portion to a termination surface of the termination portion. The first sub-portion is pressed against the termination portion and compressed during welding. A holding device encompasses the second sub-portion at least partially. The holding device supports the second sub-portion at least during the welding and compressing of the first sub-portion and maintains a position of the second sub-portion.
