Abstract

An electrical contactor has a contact portion that is pressed onto a terminal of an electronic device and is electrically connected. When the dimension of the contact portion is S1, the contact dimension of the contact portion and the terminal of the electronic device is V, the amount of sliding of the contact portion is W, and the additional element including at least positional accuracy of the contact portion is X, the dimension of the contact portion S1 satisfies S1>V+W+X. In a contact method for the electrical contactor, when the sum of a clearance on the front end side in the sliding direction in starting contact and a clearance on the back end side in the sliding direction in ending contact is X3, the crushed area S2 of the terminal is set to satisfy a relationship of S2<S1−X3.
