Female contact with at least one new wire assembly

A female electrical contact for receiving a male electrical contact, the female electrical contact comprising:

• at least one wire assembly for receiving a pin of the male electrical contact, wherein each wire assembly comprises:
• a conductive, substantially cylindrical wire-carrier defining an inner part and having a length L along a longitudinal axis;
• and
• a plurality of conductive wires configured to contact the pin of the male electrical contact,
• wherein the plurality of conductive wires are arranged in the inner part of the wire-carrier so that a direction of extension of each of the conductive wires is slanted with respect to the longitudinal axis of the wire-carrier,
• wherein opposite ends of the wires are wrapped around respective opposite ends of the wire-carrier to support the wires on the wire-carrier,
• wherein the plurality of conductive wires are arranged hyperbolically in the inner part of the wire-carrier, so that the wires are configured to align themselves elastically as contact lines around the pin, as the pin is introduced in the female electrical contact, and
• wherein the plurality of conductive wires comprise a beryllium-free copper-nickel-silicon alloy;
• a conductive socket configured to receive the at least one wire assembly;
• and
• a wiring extremity for connection of the female electrical contact to an electrical cable, wherein the socket and wiring extremity are arranged at opposing ends of the female electrical contact.
