Abstract

An electrical contact includes a contact body and a contact spring. The contact spring is disposed in the contact body and has a locking arm locking the contact spring in a housing. The locking arm moves in a vertical direction away from the contact body when a withdrawal force acting on the contact spring exceeds a retaining force of the contact spring.
