Abstract
The present invention provides a means in which contact between contacts in a 'double-break (or double-make) contact structure' occurs in two places in the same state as much as possible. A contact structure includes two fixed members () each of which has a fixed contact () and a movable member () containing a movable contact () which contacts or separates from the fixed contact of each of the fixed members. The movable member is in the form of a strip as a whole, its one end is supported so as to allow the above mentioned contact and separation of the movable member, and the other end of the movable member has the movable contact, and the movable member has a narrowed section between its two ends.
