Abstract: Connection assembly comprising a connector and a counter-connector. The shielding cage of the connector has attachment means which are formed by deformation of the shielding cage, without an opening being created. The attachment means are configured to prevent the internal element of the connecting casing from moving in translation with respect to the shielding cage, parallel to the coupling direction (A). The shielding cage is prevented from moving in translation parallel to the coupling direction (A) with respect to the external casing element with the aid of the retaining device.

Abstract: Electrical connector comprising a detection device for detecting potential overheating, which comprises an electrically conductive element and an electrically insulating element inserted between the electrically conductive element and a low-voltage line. The electrically conductive element exerts an elastic force on the insulating element. For example, the electrically conductive element is a spring. In the event of overheating, the insulating element deforms under the pressure of the electrically conductive element and enables an electrical connection between two low-voltage lines. The overheating is detected as a consequence of the electrical design of this connection between the low-voltage lines.
