Insulation-displacement connection tool and insulation-displacement terminal

A tool for connecting an electrical conductor, which is sheathed by an insulation, to an insulation-displacement terminal which has at least two contact elements which each form a conductor clamping slot and are configured to make clamping contact with the electrical conductor, the tool comprising:

• a mating bearing element, which is configured to be placed against the contact elements;
• and
• a stamp element, which is arranged so as to be movable, relative to the mating bearing element, the stamp element having a receiving element configured to hold and guide the electrical conductor, which receiving element is formed and configured to insert the electrical conductor into the conductor clamping slots when the stamp element moves, relative to the mating bearing element, out of an application position to a clamping position,
• wherein the mating bearing element has at least one supporting region which is configured to come into contact with at least one bearing face, which is averted from the conductor clamping slot, of at least one of the contact elements in the application position.
