Abstract
An elongate electrical conductor (2) is disclosed that is adapted for electrically connecting with an electrical contact, the conductor (2) includes a longitudinally extending elongate body (61) for defining a first contact surface (62); and a plurality of longitudinally spaced apart ribs (66) that extend from the body (61) to respective free ends (67) that are spaced apart from the first contact surface (62) for allowing the contact to be progressed between the body (61) and one or more of the ribs (66), each rib (66) including a respective second contact surface (68) that is opposed with the first surface (62) wherein, upon progression of the contact between the body (61) and the one or more ribs (66), the first surface (62) and the respective one or more second surfaces (68) are resiliently biased into engagement with the contact.
