Abstract: An aircraft rotational joint comprises a slip-ring device arranged for electrical energy transmission through the rotational joint. The slip-ring device comprises a first member attached to a first part of the rotational joint. The first member has a plurality of arcuate metallic ring segments and all these ring segments are isolated from each other and are spaced apart from each other. Further, the slip-ring device comprises a second member which is rotatable relative to the first member about a common rotational axis. The second member is attached to a second part of the joint and has a plurality of contact elements, each of which are arranged for electrically connecting one, preferably only one, of the ring segments.
