Abstract

An electrical contact includes a plurality of electrically conductive contact laminations which form a sleeve-like receptacle for a contact bolt. The contact laminations are pressed by a spring force in the direction of a center axis of the sleeve-like receptacle. In a first position of the pin, the pin supports the contact laminations against the spring force; in a second position of the pin, support of the contact laminations by the pin is suppressed.
