Abstract
An electrical contact device includes a high electric potential-side contact and a low electric potential-side contact having a lower electric potential than the high electric potential-side contact. The high electric potential-side contact and the low electric potential-side contact are configured to be brought into and out of contact with each other. At least one of the high electric potential-side contact and the low electric potential-side contact is formed of a low-boiling point material whose boiling point is lower than 2562° C. or a mixed material that contains the low-boiling point material.
