EN 3660-065 has been prepared by the Aerospace and Defence Industries
Association of Europe - Standardization (ASD-STAN)
EN 3660-065 defines a range of cable outlets, style K, 90°, shielded, sealed, self-locking (anti-rotational), for heat shrinkable boot, and/ or metallic bands for use under the following conditions:
The mating connectors are listed in EN 3660-002.
Temperature range, Class F (N): − 65 °C to 200 °C (See note above).
Class K: − 65 °C to 200 °C
Class KE: − 65 °C to 260 °C
Class W: − 65 °C to 175 °C
Class T: − 65 °C to 175 °C (Nickel PTFE plating)
Class Z: − 65 °C to 175 °C (Zinc Nickel plating).
Associated electrical accessories: EN 3660-033 Metallic band (for shield termination).
These cable outlets are designed for the termination of the overall shielding braid and/or individual cable shields. They accommodate/permit the termination of heat shrinkable boots.
NOTE: Class N in EN 3660-001 cross-refers to class F in EN 3660-065.
BS EN 3660-065 on cable outlet accessories for circular and rectangular electrical and optical connectors is useful for:
Aerospace electrical cables sustain intense vibration during takeoff, flight, and landing, while also being subject to harsh environmental conditions. Cable faults cost money and create disruption, so there is an enormous demand for cable test techniques to ensure cables and connectors are in good condition.
Quality Assurance measurements in BS EN 3660-065 ensure that the techniques and methods of connecting the Cable outlet, style K, 90°, for heat shrinkable boot, shielded, sealed, self-locking are implemented correctly. BS EN 3660-065 is important because it helps to enhance quality and user satisfaction.
BS EN 3660-065 can boost the customer’s faith and confidence with the aircraft and enhance their experience of working with the aircraft overall. BS EN 3660-065 provides characteristics of the cable’s connectors such as dimension, mass, associated connectors, assembly torque materials, and finish. BS EN 3660-065 also specifies the designation, marking, and technical specifications of the cable connectors.
