9 . The two-part pin-contact assembly of claim 8 , wherein the two mutually associated detent devices of the pin-contact device and of the contact body are formed as a detent protrusion and a detent recess.

10 . The two-part pin-contact assembly of claim 1 , wherein the secondary locking includes locking surfaces of the pin-contact device and locking surfaces of the contact body, normal vectors of the locking surfaces of the pin-contact device are set up in opposite directions, normal vectors of the locking surfaces of the contact body are set up in opposite directions.

11 . The two-part pin-contact assembly of claim 1 , wherein the contact body includes a receptacle receiving the pin-contact device, the receptacle includes mounting longitudinal portions spaced apart along the longitudinal direction, the receptacle being formed substantially completely closed in the circumferential direction, the primary locking is established between two such mounting longitudinal portions in the contact body, the receptacle includes inner bearing surfaces obliquely opposite one another with respect to the longitudinal direction, the pin-contact device including a locking surface adjoining the corresponding inner bearing surface.

12 . The two-part pin-contact assembly of claim 1 , wherein the primary locking is established in a longitudinal extent portion of the pin-contact assembly, the primary locking being formed by a circumferential portion of the contact body, the primary locking including a circumferential tab, wherein a free edge of the circumferential tab is welded to a wall of the contact body and a corner region of the pin-contact device to secure the pin-contact device in the contact body.

13 . The two-part pin-contact assembly of claim 1 , wherein the contact body includes a primary locking assembly and a secondary locking assembly configured to be secured in a housing, the primary locking assembly including a resilient locking lance, the secondary locking assembly including rigid locking shoulder.

14 . The two-part pin-contact assembly of claim 1 , wherein the contact body includes an electrical conductor crimping region and a mechanical insulation crimping region.

15 . An electrical entity comprising:

a housing having a chamber; and

a two-part electrical pin-contact assembly received in the chamber, the two-part electrical pin-contact assembly including a pin-contact device extending in a longitudinal direction and a contact body extending in said longitudinal direction, wherein the pin-contact device is received in the contact body and secured to the contact body by a primary locking and a secondary locking.

16 . The electrical entity of claim 15 , wherein the primary locking includes at least one of a materially bonded connection or a welded connection between the pin-contact device and the contact body, and wherein the secondary locking includes at least one of a mechanical seating connection or a contact device stop or a mechanical locking connection between the pin-contact device and the contact body.

17 . The electrical entity of claim 15 , wherein the primary locking is a circumferential portion, the circumferential portion being formed as at least one of a welded connection and a circumferential form-fit connection between the pin-contact device and the contact body, the pin-contact device being locked in at least two translational degrees of freedom in the contact body by the circumferential portion, the pin-contact device being locked in at least two rotational degrees of freedom in the contact body by the circumferential portion.

18 . The electrical entity of claim 15 , wherein the secondary locking includes a mechanical connection between an outer side of the pin-contact device and an inner side of the contact body, the mechanical connection being established between a longitudinal end of the pin-contact device and a projection facing inwardly into the contact body, the mechanical connection between the pin-contact device and the contact body meshing with each other to position the pin-contact device in the contact body.
