POWER CONTACT

The present invention relates to a power contact comprising a contact terminal (20) and an essentially cylindrical spring element (10), wherein the contact terminal (20) comprises a connection portion (21) for power connection and a contact portion adapted for the reception of a contact pin. The spring element (10) is mountable essentially coaxially with the contact portion. The contact terminal (20) further comprises at least one stop edge (26) and the spring element (10) comprises at least one locking tongue (11) which is bent essentially into a plane perpendicular to the spring element's longitudinal axis providing a corresponding locking edge which together with at least one of the said contact terminal's stop edges (26) blocks a relative rotation of the contact terminal (20) and the spring element (10) with respect to each other.
