BS EN 2591 is a European standard that discusses test methods for the elements of the electrical and optical connection.
BS EN 2591-505 specifies a method of verifying the effectiveness of the protection of contacts (scoop-proof) used in elements of the electrical and optical connection.
BS EN 2591-505 shall be used together with EN 2591-100.
BS EN 2591-505 on test methods for contact protection (scoop-proof) is relevant to:
Contact protection methods are designed to mitigate the wear and degradation occurring during the normal use of contacts within an electromechanical switch, relay, or contactor and thus avoid an excessive increase in contact resistance or switch failure.
BS EN 2591-505 guides you on the preparation of specimens and provides test methods for assessing the effectiveness of protection of contracts.
BS EN 2591-505 covers the requirements and procedures in two phases for the test method used for assessing the effectiveness of protection of contacts used in elements of the electrical and optical connection.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 2591-505, you can demonstrate the reliability of your elements of electrical and optical connection and build trust in its use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
