ABSTRACT:
An electrical contact member comprises a conductive plate (4) having therein a slot (5) open to an edge of the plate (4), the slot (5) having a mouth (28) at the edge of the plate (4) and leading to a first inwardly tapering section (29) which leads to a second parallel straight sided section (30), the second section (30) leading into a third inwardly tapering section (31) having convex converging sides leading to a throat (32) which opens into a fourth outwardly tapering section (33) leading into a fifth inwardly tapering section (34) having convex converging sides, the maximum width of the fifth section (34) being less than that of the third section (31), the fifth section (34) defining a closed end (35) for the slot (5). When used with a conductor (100) having a stranded core the slot shape of the contact serves to retain the strands in as near as possible their original relative positions, thus ensuring reliable connection.
