A socket with a base and a reciprocating cover for use in the burn-in test of an electrical part which is characterized in that during the time from immediately before mounting of the electrical part to the completion of mounting thereof, the electrical part is moved in such a manner that a terminal lead of the electrical part will come in contact and wipe a contact element of the socket so that any oxide film on the surface of the contact element of socket is removed. Also, a latch can be provided for holding the socket in desired mounting position during the above described wiping and contacting procedure.
