Abstract: For a conductor-connecting element for connecting electrical conductors, in which element contact with electrical conductors is made with the aid of insulation-displacement contacts in the guide ducts of a conductor-guiding part, it is proposed that the conductor-guiding ducts be constructed in a conductor-guiding part in such a way that deflection of the electrical conductors takes place at different levels or sequentially, as a result of which the insulation-displacement contacts make contact with the electrical conductors one after another so that a distinct reduction in the expenditure of force is achieved. An insulation-displacement contact formed to receive electrical conductors with different diameters may be used.

Abstract: For a sealing insert of a cable gland it is proposed that the sealing insert be provided with a peripheral step which is adapted to a peripheral step in the pressure screw and that the sealing insert be provided on its outer diameter on the cable insertion side with a conical bevel which is adapted to the conical bevel of the pressure screw, the angle of the bevel of the pressure screw being designed to be more acute relative to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A tension-relieving assembly for electrical and/or optical conductors of a cable, wherein the conductors, which are guided in parallel in the cable, are held in a cable-guiding part and are inserted in conductor-guiding ducts in a conductor-guiding part, and wherein the axes of the conductors in the cable-guiding part and in the conductor-guiding part are offset relative to one another. The conductor-guiding part is provided, at the lead-in end for the conductors, with an annular collar, and a central peg is disposed in the annular collar. The cable-guiding part is constructed, at the conductor exit end, with a stepped recess, such that when the cable-guiding part and conductor-guiding part are joined together, the central peg is pressed between the conductors and forces the conductors outwards against the inner contour of the stepped recess in the cable-guiding part.

Abstract: A pin-shaped contact element that can be fixed in printed circuit board boreholes, preferably in metallized printed circuit board boreholes, has a fastening section with two parallel side parts that can move elastically towards one another and a gradually tapering insertion region, the elasticity of the insertion region being increased by providing in the insertion region an opening which runs transversely to the connecting web of the side parts and interrupts this connecting web in the transition or connecting region to the lower end of the pin.
