Abstract

An electrical contact assembly comprises an electrical contact member 8 fixed to a metal panel 10 by a blind rivet 14, and prongs 28 which are arranged as the fixing member 14 is operated, to bite into the metal within the hole 12 in the panel 10 thereby ensuring good electrical contact between the contact member 8 and the panel 10. <IMAGE>
