The invention relates to an electrical terminal element comprising a base element with at least one terminal section and at least one socket section which has at least one contact arm for contacting a plug-in contact which can be introduced into the socket section. In a contact region in which contacting of the inserted plug-in contact takes place, the contact arm is divided into at least two partial contacts. Also, the electrical terminal element comprises an additional spring which surrounds the base element in the region of the socket section and which has at least one additional spring arm which at least in the contact region cooperates with the contact arm, so that the latter can be deflected against a return force of the additional spring arm.
