Electrical connectors are used to join electrical conductors to create an electrical circuit. BS EN 60512-1-100 provides a listing of the 60512 series of standards for specific tests that are created for connectors.
Further BS EN 60512-1-100 gives cross-references with the former (60)512 standards, where different test numbers were used. The connector tests as such are mainly identical with the previously published standards; minor changes may be introduced due to technical developments. The former issues were in booklets, with several related tests in one document, while the present issues are leaflets, each featuring one single test.
BS EN 60512-1-100 on connectors testing and measurements are useful for:
Electronic equipment is used in applications that rely on mechanical or electric systems for their operation. They are essential to any work on electronics systems for creating signals and capturing responses from electronic devices. There are certain specifications regarding the performance of electronic equipment.
BS EN 60512-1-100 contains a tabled version of the list of tests for connectors featuring:
The guidelines in BS EN 60512-1-100 allows you to conduct specific tests for assessing specific features of connectors that enable you to provide a superior quality product to your customers.
