Abstract
A cable or electrical line and a method for producing a plug-in contour at a line end of an electrical line, such as a stranded line. The method includes forming, in particular press-forming, the electrical line at the line end while creating a plug-in section with at least one flat surface section at this line end, providing a contact strip, wherein the contact strip has a plurality of resilient contact lamellae projecting from the contact strip, and applying and connecting the contact strip to the surface section.
Claims15
A method of producing a plug-in contour at a line end of an electrical line, forming a stranded line, comprising the following steps:
- a. press-forming the electrical line at the line end while creating a plug-in section with at least one flat surface section at this line end;
- b. providing a contact strip, wherein the contact strip has a plurality of resilient contact lamellae projecting from the contact strip;
- and
- c. applying and connecting the contact strip to the at least one flat surface section.
A method of producing a plug-in contour at a line end of a bus bar having a surface, comprising the following steps:
- a. providing a contact strip, wherein the contact strip has a plurality of resilient contact lamellae projecting from the contact strip, and wherein the contact strip has an edge-side web on at least one edge region, and on the edge-side web the plurality of contact lamellae are connected on one side while the other opposite end of the contact lamellae is configured as a free end;
- and
- b. applying and connecting the contact strip to the surface of the bus bar.
An electrical line having an electrical stranded conductor and a line end which forms a plug-in section which has at least one flat surface section and at least one contact lamella strip applied directly onto the flat surface section and connected thereto, wherein the contact lamella strip has a plurality of elastically resilient contact lamellae projecting therefrom.
