1. A soldering aid for electrically conductively connecting a cable core of a cable to a conductor area, the soldering aid comprising:
a body made of an electrically insulating material and being formed as a single piece; and
an electrically conductive contact part received in the body, the contact part having a contact surface configured to electrically conductively contact the conductor area,
wherein the body is formed with a receptacle having a slot open toward one side configured to receive the cable core of the cable, and is formed with a through-bore configured to surround a sheathed portion of the cable,
wherein the contact part closes an opening at a bottom of the slot and conductively contacts the cable core,
wherein the through-bore has, at least in a first sub-section of the through-bore, a diameter that decreases away from an insertion opening,
wherein the through-bore has, in at least a second sub-section of the through-bore disposed after the first sub-section in an insertion direction of the cable, a diameter that is smaller than a diameter of the sheathed portion of the cable, and
wherein the through-bore has a step from the second sub-section to a third sub-section disposed after the second sub-section in the insertion direction of the cable.
