A set (40) of
electrical switching contacts (1, 2) for a vacuum
circuit breaker (100) is proposed, comprising:-a first contact (1),-a second contact (2) movable along a movement axis (A), each contact (1; 2) has a plurality of branches (5a, 5b, 5c; 6a, 6b, 6c), said branches being formed by a slot (7a, 7b, 7c; 8a, 8b, 8c), in which each
branch (5a, 5b, 5c) of the first contact (1) and each
branch (6a, 6b, 6c) of the second contact (2) comprise an inclined surface (9a, 9b, 9c; 10a, 10b, 10c), and wherein the first contact (1) and the second contact (2) are connected at an angle such that:-the slot (7a, 7b, 7c) of the first contact (1) coincides with the slot (8a, 8b, 8c) of the second contact (2), and-the inclined surface (9a, 9b, 9c) of one
branch (5a, 5b, 5c) of the first contact (1) and the inclined surface (10a, 10b, 10c) of one branch (6a, 6b, 6c) of the second contact (2) are opposite each other.
