An electrical contact assembly.

摘要

An electrical contact assembly (10) is provided which includes a probe (12) and a housing (14) in which the probe (12) is selectively at least partially receivable. The probe (12) includes an electrically conductive contact member (16) for selectively making contact with an electrical cable, contact or the like. The housing (14) includes a holding formation (15) defining a holding zone (62) in which an electrical cable (64) is receivable. The contact member (16) is displaceable into an operative position in which it is positioned in the holding zone (62) to make electrical contact with the cable (64). The invention extends to a housing for an electrical contact assembly and to a probe.
