Abstract
A contacting device for electrically contacting tensile carriers of a suspension in an elevator system includes a housing having a recess in which an exposed segment of the suspension can be received so that the housing at least partially encloses the exposed segment of the suspension. Raised areas and recesses are alternatingly disposed on an inner side of the housing, wherein a raised area and a recess face each other in a state of use. At least one contact element is disposed in a recess of the housing, wherein the at least one raised area can be pressed against a tensile carrier of the suspension, such that the tensile carrier is brought into electrical contact with the contact element.
