The contact
has a
convoluted
spring with
convolutio
ns and a
contact
point at


each end.
In one
contact
embodimen
t, the
convolutio
ns have
appendages
which
electrically
short
adjacent
convolutio
ns
throughout
a

An
appendage
may be a
single

extends
from one
convolutio

the
adjacent
convolutio
n, a pair of
opposed
fingers that
extend
toward
each other
from
adjacent

machined
edges on

convolutio

configurati

fingers or a

the
appendage

are at a
skew angle
to the
direction of

another

attached at
one contact
point and
parallel to
the spring
spans most

Alternative

shunt
electrically
shorts the
two contact

bypassing
the
convolutio

contact is
placed
within a

aperture in
a dielectric

has
openings at
each end
through
which the
contact
points
protrude.
