Abstract
The disclosure relates to an electrical connector employed to make and break an electric motor main circuit between the control unit side and the side of the box-shaped frame of a control center. The electrical connector includes a male contact, a female contact having a pair of contact strips engaged with and disengaged from the male contact and a end section to which a connecting conductor is connected. A pair of conductive strips of the connecting conductor extends at the outside of the contact strips of the female contact in an opposite relation to the same. The conductive strips of the connecting conductor are coupled by a regulating rod which prevents the outward movement of the conductive strips. The female contact and the connecting conductor are integrated and enclosed in a cavity of an insulating case for oscillation. The contact pressure between the male and female contacts is increased by an electromagentic repulsive force induced between the contact strips of the female contact and the connecting conductor.
