Abstract
A connecting means for ignition systems in internal combustion engines is designed such that the connecting means is functionally reliable even under unfavorable operating conditions. The connecting means has, among other things, a first connection for an ignition coil, a second connection for a spark plug, and a covering cap encasing these connections. The covering cap is made of two layers, having an inner casing made of electrically insulating material and an outer casing lying directly on the inner casing, the outer casing being made of an electrically conductive material, which is electrically connected to ground potential. The casings are each made up of a resilient material. The connecting means is for use in the automotive industry.
