Spark plug connector

A spark plug connector (1) comprising

• a connector body (21) formed as an insulator having a spark plug high voltage contact (35) for producing a connection to and with a spark plug (6),
• an ignition cable (3) entering the connector body (21) on the side remote from the spark plug high voltage contact for transmission of an ignition voltage from an ignition voltage source (5) to the spark plug (6),
• a spark plug connector (1) extending structural element (22) received, mounted and/or connected on the connector body (21) at a connection point (23) on the side of the connector body (21) remote from the spark plug high voltage contact,
• wherein the structural element (22) is arranged at the connection point (23) in such a manner such that the structural element (22) lengthens the connector body (21) on the side remote from the spark plug high voltage contact,
• wherein the ignition cable (3) is held or guided along the length of the structural element (22) and
• wherein the material of the structural element has a higher rigidity and strength and/or a lower density with at the same time less material than the material of the connector body (21).
