Abstract: Electric contacting assembly for an electrochemical cell unit (20), comprising a housing (1) which has a plurality of slot-shaped recesses (7), each of which is designed to receive a contacting lug (22) of the electrochemical cell unit (20), wherein the housing (1) has a closed face (2). Each recess (7) is connected to the closed face (2) by a first bore (10) and a second bore (11). A contacting element (15) is arranged in each recess (7), which contacting element has a first pin (16), a second pin (17) and a contacting section (18), wherein each of the pins (16; 17) is arranged in one of the bores (10; 11) and the contacting section (18) protrudes into the recess (7) so that a contacting lug (22) can be clamped between the contacting section (18) and the wall of the recess (7) in an electrically contacting manner.
