Abstract
A cable connector clamping connector comprises a plastics housing consisting of at least two elements having integrated therein a contact blade for contacting the ends of cable conductors which have been pushed into the housing. After inserting the cable conductors, the housing halves can be pushed together to lock, applying to the cable conductors the force necessary to press them into the contact blades for contacting. In order to make it possible for the user to check the depth of insertion in order to be certain that contacting is guaranteed in every case and with which, at the same time, a catch effect with respect to the outlet direction of the conductors is achieved, a resistance element, in the form of a plastics tongue, for tangibly signalling the depth of insertion of the cable conductor into the housing is provided in the effective insertion channel of each cable conductor, behind the contact blade in the direction of insertion.
