9426 ABSTRACT A zero insertion force electrical connector (11) including a first housing part (16) having cavities (102) receiving a series of contacts (14) comprising first and second arms (62 and 64) integrally joined at root ends (72 and 76) and having opposed contact surfaces at free ends (72 and 76) defining sockets. The second arm (64) has an intermediate portion (78) of sinuous shape having successive elements (78a, d, b, e, c) extending longitudinally and laterally of the contact arm (64) which provide both torsional and bending stress components when flexed. A second housing part (10) is mounted for sliding movement on the first housing part (16) to move the contact surface of the second arm (64) away from the first arm (62) to admit a lead (116) into the socket with zero insertion force.
