Cable terminal

Cable terminal for end-face connection of at least one multi-strand conductor of a first cable to an electrical device or second cable, comprising:

• a plug part having at least one contact element, said at least one contact element having a first end for connection to said electrical device or second cable and a free second end shaped for penetration connection into the strands of the at least one multi-strand conductor of the first cable;
• a cable receiver adapted to be connected to the plug part in opposed relationship to the free end of said at least one contact element;
• and
• a core holding and guiding part having at least one core guidance channel, the core holding and guiding part being mounted in the cable receiver and being surrounded by the plug part and the cable receiver when the plug part and the cable receiver are connected to one another;
• wherein the core holding and guiding part includes a first section of soft material, and a second section of hard material harder than the soft material, the second section being arranged axially with respect to the first section, the at least one core guidance channel being formed in the first section and the second section forming a positioning aid, the at least one core guidance channel and the positioning aid being shaped to align the at least one multi-strand conductor of the cable relative to the free end of the at least one contact element.
