ABSTRACT:
An electrical contact 1 is disclosed which eliminates the possibility of harmful deformations in a bent section of a resilient contacting strip 5 which is bent back from the front portion of a base section 2 of a female contact, even if it experiences a direct impact from a foreign object. Cut-outs 8 are made in the left and fight side walls 3 rising from the sides of the base section 2 of the female contact 1. On the left and right sides of the resilient contacting strip 5, in the vicinity of the bent section 53, protrusions 9 are made which face the left and right side walls 3. The spacing between the cut-outs 8 and protrusions 9 is selected in such a way that they make possible the movement of the resilient contacting strip 5 within allowed limits, but prevent any movement of the protrusions 9 beyond the permitted distance and direction when a foreign object makes a direct impact to the bent section 53.
