Plug connector

The aim of the invention is to keep the assembly complexity of a plug connector (1) low. This is achieved in that the plug connector (1) consists of multiple parts but is designed such that the plug connector can be provided as a single piece, i.e. in the form of assembled individual parts, to a user. The shielding device (4) has first guiding means (42) which are operatively connected to second guiding means (31) of the contact support (3) such that the contact support (3) can be introduced into the insulating body (2) or attached to same by a pivoting movement of the shielding device (4). After the contacts (5) are manually inserted into the contact support (3), the shielding device (4) can be pivoted over the insulating body (2) with a single movement, whereby the contact support (3) is introduced into the insulating body (2) and thus the contacts (5) are finally fixed in the insulating body (2), the shielding device (4) is locked on the contact support (3), and the contact support (3) is thereby fixed in
