Abstract (en)

An electric terminal (1) to be connected to a complementary electric terminal (2) along a preestablished direction of connection (A-A) comprises a first (4) and a second (10) portion of conductive material between which an electric continuity is achieved. Advantageously, said second portion (10) protrudes from the first portion (4) in the direction of connection (A-A) so as to contact said complementary electric terminal during the connection operation before the complementary electric terminal (2) comes into contact with the first portion (4). Moreover, the conductive material of the second portion (10) has a lower electric conductivity than the electric conductivity of the conductive material of the first portion (4). <IMAGE>
