ABSTRACT:
A plug-in type contact arrangement for high power electrical apparatus such as switch gear, wherein a fixed contact member carries a plurality of contact fingers having roller contacts mounted at one end thereof for reliably contacting a movable contact member when such movable contact member is forced into a contacting relationship with the fixed contact member and entering the cage-like receptacle formed by the circularly arranged contact fingers, and wherein the contact fingers are crimped at a predetermined point forming a first longitudinal portion and a second longitudinal portion arranged in different axial planes and connected by the crimping region, thereby transforming the contact pressure formed between the movable contact member and the roller contacts into a torsional load exerted on the contact fingers.
