A socket for connecting a trailer plug connector in the outside area of a towing vehicle has a socket housing, a first plug receiving opening, a cover, a harness connector, and a second plug receiving opening. Electrical socket contacts are supported in the socket housing extending into the first receiving opening for mating with a trailer plug connector and into the second plug receiving opening for mating with a harness connector. The harness connector has an outer perimeter lamella seal. The harness connector has terminal openings. A contact terminal connects with one single wire and has a single wire seal surrounding the single wire. The single wire seal abuts and seals an inside wall of the terminal opening. The socket housing includes a drainage from the inside of the first plug receiving opening to the outside of the socket housing.
