This approach generally pertains to a miniature receptacle terminal with a connection section and a mating section. The mating section has a dual primary contact beam component that includes contact springs having resilient contact beams and a secondary beam. Each contact beam has a contact point opposing the opposing wall of the receptacle terminal, which can include a contact bump. A distributed and balanced contact force is exerted on a male terminal pin that is inserted between the primary contact beams and the contact bumps. Overstress protection of the contact spring is provided and the terminal is economical to produce.
