Abstract
An electrical plug connector includes a plug housing having a wall with a first opening. A contact element holder surrounds the first opening. A collar extends from the wall, surrounding the contact element holder. A fixing element is detachably attached to the contact element holder and radially surrounds the contact element holder and part of the contact element holder. First protrusions project from the fixing element between the fixing element and the collar. Second protrusions project from an inner surface of the fixing element into the contact element holder. The first protrusions and the second protrusions are designed in so that after fitting the plug housing together with a mating plug housing, a collar of the mating plug housing engages the first protrusions, whereby the first protrusions are pressed inwards and whereby the second protrusions are pressed inwards against an electrical contact element held in the contact element holder.
