BS EN 60512-16-7:2008 Connectors for electronic equipment – Tests and measurements –– Part 16-7: Mechanical tests on contacts and terminations – Test 16g: Measurement of contact deformation after crimping
This part of IEC 60512, when required by the detail specification, is used for testing
connectors within the scope of IEC technical committee 48. It may also be used for similar
devices when specified in a detail specification.
The object of this part of IEC 60512 is to detail a standard test method to assess the
effectiveness of contacts to resist deformation (damage) from crimping operations.
Although this test is intended for cylindrical contacts, especially machined contacts, it is
applicable to contacts with other geometries and construction. In which case, the detail
specification shall contain sufficient detail, given under clause 4, to enable the test to be
done.
