Abstract

An electrical contact (1) includes an upper extending portion (11), a lower extending portion (12) and a bridge portion (13). The upper extending portion includes a first contact portion (111), a C-shaped connecting portion (1121) connecting with the first contact portion and a tail portion (1122) extending downwardly from a free end of the C-shaped connecting portion. The lower extending portion includes a second contact portion (121), a vertical portion (1222) and an inclined portion (1221) connecting with the second contact portion and the vertical portion. The bridge portion is integrally formed between the tail portion and the vertical portion. One of the upper extending portion and the lower extending portion is rotated around the bridge portion to form an angular relationship between the planes of the upper and lower portions.
