An electric socket for plug and socket connectors comprises resilient conducting wires. Each wire is stretched between two rigid rings and extends at rest along generatrices of one of the two families of generatrices of a hyperboloid of revolution. When a plug is inserted into the socket, it deforms the wires which are thus made to engage the plug each along a helical line. The two rings are rigidly fixed with respect to each other through metallic, relatively rigid distance-pieces, circumferentially spaced from each other. The distance-pieces are fixed symmetrically to the rings and are inclined in the same direction and by about the same angle as the adjacent resilient wires, with respect to the longitudinal axis of the socket.
