6.4.2 Contact Physics – Formulas
- Constriction resistance
(Single spot contact according to Holm; circular touching spot between clean contact surfaces)
(Multi-spot contact according to Holm without influence between the N individual spots)
(Multi-spot contact according to Greenwood considering the influence between the spots)
- Contact resistance
- Path resistance
- Contact resistance and contact force
(According to Holm model for film-free spherical contact surfaces with plastic deformation of the contact material; Fk < 1 N for typical contact materials)
(According to Holm model for film-free spherical contact surfaces with plastic deformation of the contact material; Fk > 5 N for typical contact materials)
- Dynamic contact separation (without considering magnetic fields caused by the current path)
(Rule of thumb with FA in N and l in kA)
- Contact voltage and max. contact temperature
- Contact resistance at higher contact forces (according to Babikow)
For FK between 10 and 200 N
c = material dependent proportionality factor
m = shape dependent exponent of the contact force
| Material combination | c |

| Aluminum - Aluminum | (3 bis 6,7) x 10-3 |
| Brass - Brass | 0,67 x 10-3 |
| Steel – Silver | 0.06 x 10-3 |
