SPRING LOADED CONNECTOR PIN Abstract of the Disclosure An electrical contact assembly for electrically coupling a first contact location on a first side of a planar test fixture to a second contact location on the opposing side of the test fixture. A first tubular barrel is provided for fixably mounting through a test fixture. A second tubular barrel is mounted within said first barrel with one end disposed to extend toward said first contact location. The second tubular barrel is reciprocally movable within the first barrel between a first position extending toward said first contact location and a second position extending toward said second contact location. The second barrel is biased toward said first position. A plunger is mounted within said second tubular barrel with one end disposed to extend toward said second contact location. The plunger is reciprocally movable within said second barrel between a first position extending toward said second contact location and a second position extending toward said first contact location. The plunger is biased toward said first position extending toward said second contact location. The contact assembly acts to urge said plunger toward said second contact location in response to a force acting on the extended of the second tubular barrel. The plunger retracts relative to the second tubular barrel to compensate for overextension of the second tubular barrel relative to the second contact location. Bias is preferably provided by a compression spring mounted between stops of the first and second barrel and a compression spring mounted between stops of the second barrel and the plunger. An electrical path is established between the end of the plunger and the end of the second barrel.
