The contact section (10) of the electrical contact (1) has two plates (2, 4), which have protruding ribs (14a, 14b; 16a, 16b). The plates (2, 4) are connected by a connecting member (6); a flat cable (50) is accommodated between the plates (2, 4), and the cable is held between plates (2, 4) by securing members (18, 20), which are disposed in the vicinity of the protruding ribs (14a, 14b; 16a, 16b) on the side edges of the plate (4).
