ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure sets forth a unique contact structure for a separable electrical connector for carrying relatively high levels of current at high frequency in a high temperature environment. The contact utilizes a high loading spring design which permits a relatively low resistance and low inductance contact element. The contact element takes either of two forms. One form being a multiple wire spring formed in an open helical pattern and the other being a number of c-shaped contact elements arranged in concentric circles on a thin disk.
