The invention relates to a tap selector for a tap changer. The tap selector includes a plurality of moving contacts (31). Each moving contact (31) is electrically connected to a respective current collector arm (32) and each current collector arm (32) is electrically connected to a conductor for electrical connection with a diverter switch. According to the invention each of at least some of the current collector arms (32) is assembled from two separate parts (32a, 32b) joined together. One of these is an inner part (32a) that is electrically connected to a respective moving contact (31). The other one is an outer part (32b) that is electrically connected to the conductor.
