Abstract
An electrical contact has a pair of arms extending generally parallel to and spaced apart transversely of an insertion direction and defining a slot open outward in the insertion direction. Each arm outer end has an end face extending at an acute angle to the direction. The end faces diverge outward from each other in the direction, and a bight interconnects the arm inner ends. The arms are limitedly elastically deformable for elastic displacement of the arm outer ends perpendicular to the direction so that a part can be pressed against the end faces to elastically spread the arm outer ends. An inner contact bump projects on each arm between the respective end face and the bight transversely of the direction into the slot. An outer bump projects on each arm from between the respective inner bump and the respective end face transversely of the direction into the slot.
