A socket contact is provided having two U-shaped cavities for receiving respectively the two blades. The U-shaped cavities may be formed by a single piece of material formed in a S or W shape or other shapes producing U-shaped cavities. A spring member is received within each U-shaped cavity of the socket connector to provide a frictional fit when the blade is received in the spring member. The pin connector, socket connector and spring member may be stamped and formed from a flat conductive material.
