A service plug (1) is provided with a female connector housing (20) including a plurality of female terminals (30), and a male plug (10) detachably mountable into the female connector housing (20) along an insertion direction. The male plug (10) includes one male terminal (11) that is long in the insertion direction. Each female terminal (30) includes a female body (31) dimensioned to receive the male terminal (11) therein. The female bodies (31) are aligned coaxially with the inserting direction. The one male terminal (11) is inserted into the coaxially aligned female bodies (31) so that the female terminals (30) and the one male terminal (11) are connected electrically by mounting the male plug (10) into the female connector housing (20).

A short-circuit probe for short-circuiting an inner conductor with an outer conductor in a multiway coaxial plug includes an electrically-conductive contact spring comprising a holding and stabilizing section and a contacting section. The contacting section is bent and comprises an inner-conductor contact section and an outer-conductor contact section. A housing comprises: a receiving space; an inner-conductor insertion opening in a first end face, via which the short-circuiting inner conductor of the multiway coaxial plug can be inserted into the receiving space and can be brought into contact with the inner-conductor contact section; and a laterally and/or radially aligned outer-conductor contacting opening, wherein the outer-conductor contact section of the contact spring passes through the outer-conductor contacting opening and can be brought into contact with the outer conductor. The contact spring is arranged inside the receiving space and extends over a predominant length of the housing.

The disclosure provides a socket connector including a housing, a circuit board, an electronic device, a contact element, and a switch component. The housing has an insertion hole configured for an insertion of a plug connector. The circuit board is fixed in the insertion hole. The electronic component is disposed in the insertion hole. The contact element is located in the insertion hole. The contact element has a fixed end and a movable end, the fixed end is electrically connected to the circuit board, and the movable end is movable with respect to the circuit board. The switch component is movably located in the insertion hole and is in contact with the contact element. The switch component is configured to be movable by the plug connector so as to force the movable end of the contact element to electrically connect to or disconnect from the electronic component.
