Abstract:
1. Electrical contact arrangement for high pulsed currents and for connection to a polygonal socket comprising: a contact element which has at least two contact arms which extend substantially in an insertion direction and of which one is constructed so as to be resiliently deflectable relative to the other in a deflection direction which extends perpendicular to the insertion direction, the two contact arms being arranged so as to be spaced apart from each other at least in portions in a deflection direction and there being provided on the contact element an at least one other contact arm which extends in the insertion direction and which is arranged so as to be spaced apart from the other two contact arms in a transverse direction which extends perpendicular to the insertion direction and deflection direction, the at least one other contact arm being movable in the deflection direction at least in portions into an intermediate space between the at least two contact arms and wherein the contact arrangement comprises a spring clip which can be fitted to the contact element counter to the insertion direction and which can be deformed resiliently in or counter to the deflection direction in the assembly state fitted to the contact element.
