An electrical contact terminal for an electrical plug connector for a safety restraint system is made from a single piece of bent and cut sheet-metal. The electrical contact terminal includes a mating end, having at least one contact face adapted for electrically contacting a corresponding counter contact of a counter connector. The mating end defines a mating direction of the electrical contact terminal. The electrical contact terminal includes a mounting end, having a mounting face adapted for being electrically connected to a cable end of an electrical cable. The mounting end defines a cable extension direction of the electrical contact terminal. The electrical contact terminal includes a shorting clip portion and an anchor leg, including a first abutment face. The first abutment face is a cut face of the sheet metal a surface normal of the first abutment face faces in the cable extension direction.
