ABSTRACT:
An electrical socket for mating with a pin contact is provided which has an expansion ring adjacent to the opening into the electrical socket so that when the pin contact is brought into mating relation with the socket, an electrical connection is made between the pin contact and the expansion ring to prevent deleterious arcing to a thin conductive contact element in the socket.
