Abstract

The present invention relates to a contact arrangement (1), preferably for a power electronics system, comprising a printed circuit board (2) with a fastening hole (5), comprising a metal sleeve (8) which is inserted into the fastening hole (5), wherein the sleeve (8) makes contact with, preferably is soldered to, the printed circuit board (2), comprising a base (15) on which the sleeve (8) lies in order to make electrical contact, and comprising a fastening element (11) which protrudes through the sleeve (8), wherein one end of the fastening element (11) is fixedly connected to the base (15) and a head (12) is formed or arranged at the other end, wherein the head (12) of the fastening element (11) lies only on the sleeve (8) and not on the printed circuit board (2), and wherein the sleeve (8) projects beyond the printed circuit board (2) by way of a first projection (10) on that side which faces the base (15), wherein the first projection spaces apart the printed circuit board (2) and the base (15).
