The invention relates to a modularly constructed plug connector comprising at least one plug module which can be plugged into a housing module and can be latched in the housing module, wherein the plug module and the housing module are in each case formed for receiving contact elements, and wherein the plug module has a locking arrangement at least at one outer side by means of which contact elements which are arranged in the plug module and/or in the housing module can be locked.

Plug connector

In order to design a multipole electrical connector (,) with double locking of the contact portions (,) by a finger (,) engaging in the contact portion (,) and by a thrust element (,) which can be inserted laterally in a housing (,) of insulating material, in such a way that the housing (,) of insulating material and the contact portion (,) in the insertion region are protected against damage, the thrust element (,) consists of a locking comb (,) and a cover plate (,) which are connected to each other in one piece by integrally formed transverse webs (,).
