1. A multiple contact connector comprising:

  • a) one or more so-called male plugs (6), each comprises an elongated and electrically insulated support (60) and, along the longitudinal axis of said support (60), a number of electrically conductive contact zones (61);

    b) a so-called female socket (7), comprises an elongated and electrically insulated body (70) and, along the longitude axis of said body, at least one longitudinal and electrically insulated housing (71), wherein said housing (71) further comprises a number of electrically conductive contact elements (72) positioned along the longitudinal axis of said housing;

    c) wherein said contact zones (61) and said contact elements (72) are facing each other so that, when said support (60) are put into said housing (71), said contact zones (61) contact with said contact elements (72) and form electrical connections; and

    d) a tightening device (8) for maintaining said support (60) in said housing (71) and to exert a radial pressure of contact zones (61) on contact elements (72) to ensure electrical connections.
