Abstract

A contact arrangement for use on an insulating rod having an upper fastening bore and a lower fastening bore has a U-shaped contact having a pair of limbs each formed with an upper bore and a lower bore. The contact is fittable around the rod with the limbs flanking the rod and the upper and lower bores of the limbs aligned with the respective upper and lower bores of the rod. Respective upper and lower contact holders each have a pair of mounts flanking the rod and respectively downwardly and upwardly engaging the limbs of the contact. The mounts of the contact holders are formed with bores aligned with the bores of the rod and with the bores of the respective limbs. Dielectric upper and lower pins extend through the bores of the mounts of the holders, the bores of the limbs, and the bores of the rod.
