A plug connection device for connecting an electrical cable and establishing a ground connection to an external component may have at least one plug connector and fastening means electrically and mechanically connectable therewith. The plug connector may have a housing and a plug body which is connectable to a conductor of the electrical cable and receivable in an axial direction in a receptacle of the housing. The contact element may plug into the housing to make electrical contact with the plug body received in the receptacle. The contact element and connection element are electrically connected to one another. The connection element may be connected to a ground cable that is connectable with the external component to establish, independently of the electrical cable, the ground connection with the external component via the plug body, contact element, connection part and the ground cable.
