An electrically conductive gasket for use with an electrical component, including an electrically conductive base defining a central opening therein for receiving a portion of an electrical component, a first row of spaced apart resilient conductive tabs arranged around the central opening, and a second row of spaced apart resilient conductive tabs arranged around the central opening, the first row being located inside the second row. The conductive tabs in the first and second rows of the spaced apart resilient conductive tabs extend outwardly from the conductive base and are configured to resiliently deflect when the gasket is compressed. The conductive tabs in the first and second rows of the spaced apart resilient conductive tabs are staggered relative to each other, such that in an edge view of the gasket, at least one conductive tab in one row partially overlaps at least one conductive tab in the other row.
