An earthing contact for creating an electrical contact between an earthing cable and a component comprising an electroconductive component surface, comprises an electroconductive contact plate and a fixing element, the contact plate having a first contact surface for placing the contact plate on the component surface, a second contact surface for placing an earthing cable on the contact plate, and a passage for the fixing element, the fixing element comprising a fixing section for fixing the fixing element in the component, a pressure element for pressing the contact plate onto the component surface and a holding section for arranging in the passage of the contact plate, when the pressure element presses the contact plate onto the component surface, the first contact surface being tiltable in relation to the fixing section by a tilting angle of at least 6° when the holding section is arranged in the passage.
A ground contact for making electrical contact between a ground cable and a component with an electrically conductive component surface, comprising an electrically conductive contact plate and a fastening element, wherein the contact plate has a first contact surface for applying the contact plate to the electrically conductive component surface, a second contact surface for applying a ground cable to the electrically conductive contact plate and a passage for the fastening element, wherein the fastening element has a fastening section for fastening the fastening element to the electrically conductive component, a pressure element for pressing the electrically conductive contact plate to the electrically conductive component surface and a holding section for arranging in the passage of the electrically conductive contact plate when the pressure element presses the electrically conductive contact plate to the electrically conductive component surface, wherein the first contact surface is tiltable with respect to the fastening section by a tilt angle of at least 6°, when the holding section is arranged in the passage.
