The plug connection device for mechanical and electrical plug connection of one electronic unit having a first housing (1) with another electronic unit having a second housing (2) includes an electronic plug (5) in the one unit and a socket (6) for the plug (5) in the other unit, and a mechanical locking device separate from the electronic plug (5) in the one unit. The mechanical locking device includes an operating rod or bar (7,7') slidable parallel to a wall of the one unit; at least two plate-like lock studs (10) extending inclined to the wall of the one unit and correspondingly inclined running surfaces (15) bounding lock stud recesses (13) provided in the rear wall of the other electronic unit. After the units are pushed together, the plate-like lock studs (10) are slidable by sliding the operating rod or bar substantially parallel to the wall of the one unit, so that the lock studs (10) engage in the lock stud recesses (13) of the other electronic unit (2) interiorly of running surfaces (15) provided in the second electronic unit (2), the lock studs (10) contacting and running on the running surfaces (15) during electrical connection of the plug and socket.
