An electrical receptacle (32) mounted to an aircraft (10) includes a pin contact assembly (34) having a pin body (62) releasably threaded within a threaded insert (38). A collet (70) enhances mechanical securement and electrical contact between the insert (38) and pin body (62). The outer end of the pin body (62) is configured (76) to receive a wrench for assembly disassembly of the parts.
