ABSTRACT:
An electrical socket contact with a plurality of tines for mating with a pin contact. At least one tine functions as an initial arc receiving tine while another tine functions as an axially extending pin contacting tine. The pin contacting tine has a shorter axial length than the arc receiving tine so that the arc receiving tine produces a make-first/break-last electrical contact.
