Abstract: The invention relates generally to a female electrical contact comprising a body portion and a contact portion that is distal to the body portion. The contact portion comprises a plurality of fingers tapered towards the longitudinal axis of the contact. The contact portion further comprises a tip portion at an end of the contact portion that is distal to the body portion, wherein the pluralities of fingers of the contact portion bend outward at the tip portion, away from the longitudinal axis of the contact.

Abstract: A genderless electrical connector 10 comprises a pin 12 from which opposing first 14 and second 16 legs extend in the axial direction, parallel to each other, and spaced apart in the radial direction. The legs comprise a distal end 18, a proximal end 20, and a main portion 22 extending between the ends. Each leg comprises an outermost contact surface, which in use is brought into contact to matingly engage with the legs of an identical genderless electrical connector 10. The contact surface of the legs has a rough, non-polished finish. The rough finish of the contact surface may comprise microscopic peaks and troughs, the height of a peak preferably being one nanometre. A genderless electrical connector comprising a pin and opposing first and second legs, in which the distal end comprises a rounded face which slopes radially inward, is also provided. The connector may comprise a collar 30 having a planar face 32. The pin may be a crimp barrel (34, Figure 3).

Abstract: A female electrical contact comprises a body portion 112 and a contact portion 114. The contact portion comprises a plurality of fingers 124 which taper towards the longitudinal axis of the contact but bend outward at their tips 128. A through hole 120 allows the contact to be plated. Protrusion 119a and recess 119 allow the contact to be fixed in a housing (920, Fig 9).
