Abstract
A releasable electrical connection and related methods use lateral compression of an electrically conductive spring to form a forced abutting solderless connection between the spring and a corresponding electrical lead, with the lead pressed between the spring and a support. The connection can be readily broken and remade for servicing related electrical equipment, such as an oxygen sensor assembly.
