Abstract

L'invention concerne un connecteur (1) destiné à établir une liaison électrique directe avec des plages de contact (2) d'un circuit imprimé (3). Le connecteur comprend au moins un contact électrique d'extrémité (6) d'un conducteur électrique (7) enfiché dans une direction d'enfichage (8) dans le boîtier de connecteur (5), et au moins un élément de contact électrique séparé (9) qui dépasse élastiquement d'un côté (11) du boîtier de connecteur (5), de manière transversale (10) par rapport au contact d'extrémité (6), pour établir une connexion électrique avec une plage de contact (2) du circuit imprimé (3) et qui est en appui de manière électriquement conductrice sur le contact d'extrémité (6) au moins lorsque la liaison avec la plage de contact (2) est établie.
