An electrical connection system includes a plug having contact elements, and a socket having mating contact elements. The plug can be connected magnetically to the socket by means of a magnet device for transmitting signals or current. The magnet device has at least one connection pair, which comprises a magnet and a connecting element, which can be attracted by the magnet, but itself is not in the form of a permanent magnet, wherein respectively the magnet of a connection pair is arranged in the socket, and the connecting element which is not in the form of a permanent magnet is arranged in the plug.
