A holding frame is provided, into which plug connector modules can be inserted, wherein the holder frame comprises or consists of two halves which can be connected to each other, a first half and a second half, wherein the halves each have a lateral surface and a cover surface, wherein the holding frame has at least one first blocking element, via which the halves can be fixed in a closed position, and wherein the at least one blocking element is movably held on the first half or on the second half. The blocking element is held on the first half or on the second half in a displaceable or rotatable or pivotable manner.

This disclosure relates to a method for connecting a strand element to a connection element using a re-shaping method, such as a connecting a cable lug. A system is also disclosed which comprises a pair of receiving elements having a front side with a recess and a hollow section. The hollow section is designed to accommodate a press insert having a front side with a recess. The receiving element and the press inserts are arranged in a vice. The system also comprises a clamp having a front side with a recess, which is suitable for receiving the connection element. When a pair of receiving elements is arranged, together with the press insert, around a central region of the connection element, then a re-shaping connection, such as a crimp connection, is produced between the strand element and the connection element.

A method electrically connects by crimping electrical conductors in a connector for equipotential connection of a planar and flexible layer formed by the conductors, to metal components. The method includes positioning the electrical conductors in individual longitudinal and parallel cells which are formed between two planar walls of the connector, crimping the conductors crimped in a crimping zone by simultaneous transverse punching of at least one wall of the connector, and forming by the transverse punching at least one corresponding transverse groove line on the at least one connector wall and, by load transfer, on each of the conductors to electrically connect the conductors.
