if as is shown in fig2 a the mating contact gk now runs eccentrically onto the contact point ks the mating contact eccentrically meets the contact funnel ktr in order to permit a reliable engagement of the mating contact with the contact point and to prevent damage to the two components the electrical plug element ese now has the positional orientation portion laa the latter firstly has a foot portion fab which is connected to the fixing portion fas in a direction parallel to the mounting direction rm perpendicular to the orientation of the fixing portion two webs st 1 and st 2 protrude from the foot portion fab and connect the fixing portion fas to the contact portion kab of which at least one of the webs here the web st 1 has a deformable portion vab this deformable portion finally serves to permit a movement of the contact portion kab in a direction ru or rd as is shown in fig2 b and 2c perpendicular to the mounting direction more precisely the movement or the pivoting of the contact portion kab is permitted by the fact that on the one hand the second web st 2 has a portion between the foot portion fab and the base web bas in which its cross section assumes a minimum this portion serves as a hinge portion or hinge point gp for obtaining a pivoting of the contact portion kab about the hinge point gp by contrast the first web st 1 is designed in such a way that it has an area which is extensible or compressible in terms of.
