Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0400442A2] The invention relates to a contact piece for electrical switching devices, especially contactors, having an approximately straight-line current supply lead and an arc deflector which is guided at a distance from the contact support, is constructed in a U-shaped manner in the current supply lead and whose free end which takes over the arc runs approximately in the plane of the contact support. The U-limb is offset in a parallel manner away from the contact point in the region of the contact support. The other limb is used for mounting the arc deflector. For this purpose, there is incorporated into a cuboid current supply lead a groove into which there can be inserted or mounted a web of the arc deflector, for mounting the same. <IMAGE>
