Summary:A contact arrangement of an electric switch, comprising a first stationary contact (110), a second stationary contact (112) and a movable contact (130) for making an electrical connection between the first (110) and second (112) stationary contacts, wherein the movable contact (130) is pivotally connected to the first stationary contact (110) by a pivotal connection for allowing the movable contact (130) to pivot with respect to the first stationary contact (110) about a pivoting axis (116, 135) such that in an open position of the switch, the movable contact (130) is disconnected from the second stationary contact (112), and in a closed position of the switch, the movable contact (130) is in contact with the second stationary contact (112). The movable contact (130) and the first stationary contact (110) are arranged in a first angle with respect to each other in the open position of the switch, and in a second angle with respect to each other in the closed position of the switch, and the second angle is greater than the first angle.
