ABSTRACT:
An electrical terminal for receiving a pin (15) comprises a rolled socket (2) surrounded by a helper spring sleeve (6). The socket (2) has contact springs (10) with contact bosses (12). The sleeve (6) has spring arms (42) which are provided about the circumference of the sleeve proximate an end (38) thereof. The spring arms (42) are configured to provide a pivoting action when a force is applied thereto. The pivoting action provides for reliable secondary 10 locking, as well as a centering and anti-rotation feature, thereby insuring that a positive electrical connection will be effected between the pin (15) and the socket (2).
