Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2461427A1] The high-current contact element (1) includes a plug socket (2) for receiving a plug portion of a contact pin in a radially resiliently formed receiving portion (3) of the plug socket with a contact force. The plug socket is partially surrounded by a ring (10) which deforms automatically, when the temperature in the contact rises and the contact force increases. An independent claim is included for electrical plug connector.
