ABSTRACT:
A terminal structure for an electrical switching device. The terminal structure comprises an integral thin planar member with a external terminal section, a body section, a neck section and an internal contact section all lying along a longitudinal axis. The body section is intermediate the external terminal section and the neck section. The neck section is adjacent the internal contact section that can twist about the neck section to be rotated with respect to the body and external terminal sections. During manufacture, the terminal structure is installed in planar form through a conforming passage in a molded housing. Then the internal contact section is twisted to lock the terminal structure in the housing and to form a seat for a movable contact.
