Abstract
The disclosure relates to a flat contact for insertion in a receiving member of a connector in an insertion direction (E), a receiving block for inserting the flat contact, and a connector comprising a receiving block and/or a flat contact. A solution is provided in which the positioning of a flat contact relative to the receiving block is simple and precise. This is achieved by a flat contact for insertion in a receiving member of a connector in an insertion direction (E) comprising a clamping portion having clamping projections which protrude in a width direction (B) and a positioning portion which has at the narrow sides thereof guiding faces which extend parallel with the insertion direction (E), the guiding faces projecting beyond the clamping projections in the width direction (B).
