  • Contact arrangement
    Patent number: 8366451
    Abstract: A contact arrangement (10) comprising fork-shaped contacts (15) that engage opposite faces of a blade contact (18). For good heat dissipation together with low transition resistance, the contact arrangement is made up of multiple planar, i.e., plate-shaped, fork contacts (15), which are supported and connected to each other on a shaft-like carrier (16) that is joined to a perpendicular connecting unit (14).
