A connector with a tolerance module includes a socket and a plug adapted to the socket, wherein the socket includes a first housing, the plug includes a tolerance module and a third housing, the tolerance module includes a second housing, the second housing includes second contact members, the second housing is movably arranged on the third housing in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the connector, and the second contact members are floatingly assembled in the second housing to enable displacement in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the connector. The second housing only generates translational motion without displacement when the connector is inserted. The tolerance of the plug and the socket is realized by the floating assembly of the second contact members in the second housing.

The invention relates to an electrical plug-in connection, comprising an electrical connector and a mating electrical connector, which can be connected to the electrical connector. The mating electrical connector has an actuating element, which can be moved between a home position (P.sub.0) and a locking position (P.sub.1) and is designed to cooperate with a guiding element of the electrical connector in such a way that the plug-in connection, proceeding from a pre-latching position, assumes a locked position when the actuation element is moved from the home position (P.sub.0) into the locking position (P.sub.1). The electrical connector has a toothing and the mating electrical connector has a mating toothing, which corresponds to the toothing of the electrical connector, the toothing and the mating toothing mesh with one another in the locked position of the plug-in connection.
