ELECTRIC SWITCH WITH SHORTING CONTACT Abstract of the Disclosure In an electric switch a slide contacting a shorting contact is movable back and forth along a row of at least three fixed electric contacts. The shorting contact is formed from a spring metal strip having an elongated central body between a pair of and portions, the body having a contact surface for sliding engagement with the fixed contacts and having long enough to bridge three of them simultaneously. The end portions of the shorting contact extend toward the back wall of the contact- receiving recess in the slide and toward each other to form inclined legs having free ends pressing against the slide to press the contact surface against the fixed contacts. The central body of the shorting contact is provided with at least one slot extending lengthwise of it and into its legs to separate the body into laterally spaced contact bands integrally connected at the free ends of the legs. These bands, in their unstressed condition before the shorting contact is inserted in the slide recess, are bowed lengthwise toward the inclined legs.
