ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH REDUCED BENDING FORCES AND METHOD FOR REDUCING BENDING FORCES IN SUCH CONNECTION

摘要

An apparatus and method of operation are disclosed for a high current electrical connector system and switch. In operation there is provided a method of reducing bending forces on an electrical connection point wherein a first contact is electrically connected to a second contact by a rigid electrical connection. A mechanically weakened portion on the first contact is provided and the bend forces are allowed to bend the first contact at the mechanically weakened portion, thereby reducing the bending forces applied to the electrical connection point.
