Abstract
An electrical connection arrangement has a cutting and clamping contact element including a slot opening for forming the contact with the conductor of an insulated cable. The slot opening has two facing cutting edges and an enlargement serving as the opening for the initial insertion of the end part of the insulated cable. The cutting and clamping contact element is held in the interior of an insulated body. An operating member of insulating material is movably mounted on the insulated body. When a cable is inserted into the enlargement of the cutting and clamping contact element, the cable can be moved by proactive movement of the operating member to form the contact in the zone of the slot opening of the contact element between the cutting edges.
