Abstract
In a method for connecting an electrical conductor to an electrical contact part, wherein the contact part has deformable legs the legs are deformed by means of a bending die in such a way that the legs press the conductor with the contact part in a force-locked manner, wherein the contact part is acted upon in so that at least the legs are materially connected to each other. A device includes a bending die for connecting an electrical conductor to an electrical contact part, wherein the contact part has deformable legs and the bending die is designed to deform the legs in such a way that the legs press the conductor with the contact part in a force-locked manner, and wherein the device also includes a laser welding device designed to act on the contact part so that at least the legs are materially connected to each other.
