Abstract
The electrical contact 1 has a contact member 16 that contacts the mating contact T. The contact member 16 has a first resilient contact arm 16a which extends rearward from the lower top wall 15, a connecting section 16b which is bent downward at the rear end of the first resilient contact arm, and a second resilient contact arm 16c which extends forward from the connecting section 16b. In cases where the mating contact T tends to be pushed further inward after the insertion of the mating contact T has been completed, the area in the vicinity of the rear end of the first resilient contact arm 16a contacts the upper top wall 14.
