An electrical contact assembly has a contact carrier formed with symmetrically opposed rows of comb-like guides, opposed rows of double-ended contact fingers mounted in the guides, a first contact piece supported by the contact carrier between the contact fingers at one end of the fingers and a second contact piece for insertion between the contact fingers at the opposite end of the fingers. For resiliently urging the fingers to contact the respective contact pieces, a pair of spring elements are attached to the contact carrier. Each spring element has a central web mounted on the carrier and opposite rows of arms extending from the web to engage opposite portions of the respective fingers.
