Clamp-jaw contact assembly and meter socket employing the same

摘要

A clamp-jaw contact assembly includes a stationary contact adapted to engage a meter socket cavity. A moveable contact is adapted to engage a meter bayonet. A unitary spring/pivot wire-formed U-shaped member pivotally mounts the moveable contact to the stationary contact and is adapted to bias the moveable contact toward the stationary contact upon insertion of the meter bayonet therebetween.
