Abstract
A socket contact for meeting with a pin contact in an electrical conductor is shown. The socket contact is provided with an electrical contact-attaching section formed within a receptacle section for providing a electrically efficient design. A pin having at one section diameter larger than the interior diameter of the receptacle section initially engages the arc arresting portion and establishes an electrical connection between the pin and the socket contacts. The socket contact retains the pin in a centrally disposed opening after insertion, eliminating contact between the pin and arc arresting area.
