An electrical contact for use in a connector (30) between mutually opposed electrical interfaces comprises a generally planar contact body (10) having first and second major faces (11, 12). The body (10) includes a pair of spaced apart spring arms (14, 15) connected by a resilient bight (16). The spring arms (14, 15) have respective free ends each with an outwardly facing edge which defines a contact nose (17, 18) engageable with a respective one of the interfaces. Respective shorting sections (19, 20) extend from each of the free ends generally toward each other. The shorting sections (19, 20) are offset from each other such that the first major face (11) of one shorting section (19) is coplanar with the second major face (12) of the other shorting section (20). Upon deflection of the spring arms (14, 15) relatively closer together, the coplanar major faces (11, 12) of the shorting sections (14, 15) come into mutual engagement, whereby a shortened electrical path is formed between the contact noses (17, 18). |
