A contact (1, 2) that is formed of a metal plate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and electrically connects a first board and a second board, the contact (1, 2) comprising: a bottom part to be joined to the first board; a first spring that is bent in a first bending direction to bend the first surface outward and the second surface inward, the first spring extending from the bottom part; a second spring configured to be displaced in a first direction toward the bottom part and in a second direction opposite to the first direction by deformation of the first spring; and a third spring that extends from the second spring, characterized in that the third spring includes: a first portion (152, 252) extending from the second spring and bent in the first bending direction; a second portion (154, 254) extending from the first portion (152, 252) and bent in a second bending direction to bend the first surface inward and the second surface outward; a third portion (156, 256) extending from the second portion (154, 254) and bent in the second bending direction; and an end portion (158, 258) extending from the third portion (156, 256), and bent in the second bending direction, wherein, when the contact (1, 2) is pressed by the second board, the end portion (158, 258) comes into contact with the bottom part after the second portion (154, 254) or the bent portion comes into contact with the bottom part. a bottom part to be joined to the first board; a first spring that is bent in a first bending direction to bend the first surface outward and the second surface inward, the first spring extending from the bottom part; a second spring configured to be displaced in a first direction toward the bottom part and in a second direction opposite to the first direction by deformation of the first spring; and a third spring that extends from the second spring, characterized in that the third spring includes: a first portion (152, 252) extending from the second spring and bent in the first bending direction; a second portion (154, 254) extending from the first portion (152, 252) and bent in a second bending direction to bend the first surface inward and the second surface outward; a third portion (156, 256) extending from the second portion (154, 254) and bent in the second bending direction; and an end portion (158, 258) extending from the third portion (156, 256), and bent in the second bending direction, a first portion (152, 252) extending from the second spring and bent in the first bending direction; a second portion (154, 254) extending from the first portion (152, 252) and bent in a second bending direction to bend the first surface inward and the second surface outward; a third portion (156, 256) extending from the second portion (154, 254) and bent in the second bending direction; and an end portion (158, 258) extending from the third portion (156, 256), and bent in the second bending direction, wherein, when the contact (1, 2) is pressed by the second board, the end portion (158, 258) comes into contact with the bottom part after the second portion (154, 254) or the bent portion comes into contact with the bottom part.
