Abstract
Disclosed is a closing cap for media-tight sealing of a plug face of a plug-and-socket connector, in particular a round plug-and-socket connector, wherein the closing cap can be detachably fixed to a plug-and-socket connector housing, wherein the closing cap is configured, such that a further closing cap of identical construction can be detachably fixed to the closing cap. The closing caps can be stored, for example stacked one on top of the other, on a plug-and-socket connector housing in a switchgear cabinet. This simplifies storage.
