ABSTRACT:
An electrical connection between high current contact members (26 and 27) is provided by a male and female securing member (10 and 11) of the same coefficient of expansion. The inner surface (21) of a tubular shaft component (19) of the female member (11) and the outer surface (22) of a tubular shaft (18) component of the male member (10) are provided with complementary tapers enabling mating together as a force fit so that plate portions (13 and 12) extending from the root ends of shaft components of respective members (11 and 10) clamp the securing members (26 and 27) therebetween.
In one example, the securing members (41, 41') are identical and hermaphroditic, each shaft component (42 and 42') being of hemicylindrical shape and semicircular cross section, female sockets being defined by apertures (44 or 44') in plates (45 or 45').
