The present invention relates to an electrical contact coupling (10) for a track-borne vehicle, wherein the electrical contact coupling (10) comprises a coupling housing (11) having at least one frontal housing opening (23, 33). In order to achieve the current or data-carrying cables of the electrical contact coupling (10) not needing to move relative to the electrical contact coupling (10) when said electrical contact coupling (10) is being coupled and thus reduce the mechanical wear on the external current or data-carrying cables/cable harnesses which realize a relative movement to the coupling during the coupling process, the invention provides for a first contact holder (20) having a plurality of electrical contacts (32) to be arranged in the coupling housing (11) as well as a contacting support (40) having a plurality of contact tabs (42). The contacting support (40) is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the coupling housing (11) relative to said coupling housing (11) from a first position, in which the contacting support (40) with the contact tabs (42) is completely accommodated within the coupling housing (11), into a second position in which at least the front end region of the contacting support (40) protrudes from the housing opening (23, 33).
