Abstract
The present invention provides a power connector having three components. A pin contact is provided having a contact area in the shape of a cylinder with the front end in the form of a cone or other shape with an extended surface. A socket contact is provided that is similar to the pin contact, except the front end is shaped to conform to the front end of the pin. A wound torsion spring is provided for biasing the pin contact and socket contact together. The torsion spring, pin contact and socket contact are carried in a receptacle connector, plug connector and back shell respectively which can be mated and unmated with negligible force.
