Abstract

A socket for an electrical plug-and-socket connection is described, comprising a housing, a plug-in opening for mounting a plug, and a contact support insert configured in the housing. The contact support insert comprises contacts extending into the plug-in opening, configured as flat contacts with elastically bent contact surfaces. Preferably, to provide a reliably sealed socket, a first part of the socket housing is formed together with the contact support insert as a single component in a first injection molding step, and the contacts are then fastened into the contact support insert. In a second injection molding step, a second part of the socket housing is then cast onto the first part of the socket housing.
