Abstract: In order to allow conductors to be connected to a plug bridge in a simple manner, the plug bridge has a support to which a plurality of contact pins and also a plurality of conductor connections which are electrically conductively connected to, in each case, one contact pin are fastened. The support contains a housing which, together with the conductor connections, is covered by a common dimensionally stable and inherently rigid cover part in a closed state. The cover part has, in the region of the conductor connections, separating webs which extend between the conductor connections in the closed state. The entire dimensionally stable cover part can be moved from an open position to a closed position in a pivotable manner on the support.
