Patent attributes
A connecting element for galvanically connecting two electrically conductive surfaces, comprises: a body plate having a body plate upper surface defining a body plate top level; and a spring tab extending from the body plate and having a spring tab upper surface comprising an upper contact section above the body plate top level. The connecting element has a connecting element bottom level, and the spring tab has a spring tab lower surface comprising a lower contact section, the spring tab having a rest position in which, with no external force applied onto the upper contact section, the lower contact section lies above the connecting element bottom level, and is bendable, by applying external force onto the upper contact section, to a compressed position in which the lower contact section lies in or below the connecting element bottom level.
