An electrical contact assembly includes a first module having a first set of electrical contacts, a second module having a second set of electrical contacts, a shape generating module, and a clamping arrangement for clamping the first, second and shape generating modules together. The shape generating module imparts a desired shape to the second module for urging the second set of electrical contacts toward the first set of electrical contacts, such that clamping the modules together results in a positive contact force between the first and second sets of electrical contacts that is substantially uniform across the sets of electrical contacts. The shape generating module includes a first insulating layer, a second insulating layer and a shape producing layer disposed between the first and second insulating layers. The shape producing layer includes an adhesive that flows and cures upon application of a heat treatment to produce the desired shape. |
