ELECTRICAL CRIMP FERRULE, METHOD FOR FERRULE MOUNTING AND METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTING DEVICE

The invention relates to an electrical crimp ferrule (20), in particular hf-crimp ferrule (20), for an electrical connecting device of an electrical multi-core cable preferably for the motor vehicle sector, comprising a circumferential centre portion (200) which integrally connects a first circumferential flank (210) to a second circumferential flank (220) of the crimp ferrule (20), wherein,in order to implement a mainly or substantially circular crimp cross section on a non-circular or circular inner cross section (50) of the multi-core cable (5), the crimp ferrule (20) itself: has at least one crimp diameter compensation means (212, 222) for crimping the crimp ferrule (20) onto the substantially non-circular inner cross section (50), or has had at least one crimp diameter compensation means (212, 222) for crimping the crimp ferrule (20) onto the substantially circular inner cross section (50).
