ELECTROCHEMICAL CELL WITH CONTACT LUG

An electrochemical cell includes a cylindrical housing that encloses an interior space having a first end face and a second end face that are interconnected by an annular shell, and a positive and a negative electrode are arranged in the interior of the housing, wherein the negative electrode is electrically connected, either directly or via a separate conductor, to the first end face to constitute a negative pole, and the positive electrode is electrically connected, either directly or via a separate conductor, to the second end face to constitute a positive pole, and a contact lug is fastened to the first or second end face of the housing.
