Abstract
An electrical connector includes a plug which is designed as a threaded sleeve for screwing on a union nut or for screwing into a stationary housing component of an electronic device. The external thread of the threaded sleeve has at least one threadless area provided in the plug-in direction into which a matching internal thread of a union nut or of a housing can be plugged in almost completely, in such a way that tightening of the threaded joint is reduced to one half or maximum a full revolution. The construction allows for the use of complete screw threads and thus the combination with standard connectors of the same commercially available size and type of connection.
