Foreword The text of document 48B/1848/FDIS, future edition 1 of IEC 60512-15-6, prepared by SC 48B, Connectors, of IEC TC 48, Electromechanical components and mechanical structures for electronic equipment, was su
13、bmitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60512-15-6 on 2008-07-01. This standard is to be read in conjunction with EN 60512-1 and EN 60512-1-100 which explains the structure of the EN 60512 series. The following dates were fixed: latest date by which the EN has to b
14、e implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2009-04-01 latest date by which the national standards conflicting with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2011-07-01 Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC. _ Endorsement notice The text of the Inter
15、national Standard IEC 60512-15-6:2008 was approved by CENELEC as a European Standard without any modification. _ 2 BS EN 60512-15-6:2008CONNECTORS FOR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS Part 15-6: Connector tests (mechanical) Test 15f: Effectiveness of connector coupling devices 1 Scope and
16、 object This part of IEC 60512, when required by the detail specification, is used for testing connectors within the scope of technical committee 48. It may also be used for similar devices when specified in a detail specification. The object of this document is to detail a standard test method to a
17、ssess the effectiveness of the coupling device to maintain engagement of mated connectors fitted with coupling and / or retaining devices when subject to specified forces applied to the cable/wire bundle or harness or applied directly to the connector body if so specified in a detail specification.
18、2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60512-1-1, Connectors

20、 of specimen The specimen shall consist of a mated pair with its terminations, wired as specified in the detail specification. All coupling and retaining devices shall be utilised as referred to, or specified in, the detail specification. Any preconditioning given in the detail specification shall b
21、e applied. 3.2 Equipment For the application of the axial loads a suitable device able to provide the controls on the loads (intensity, rate of increase, time of constant load application) shall be required (e.g.: a universal materials testing machine). NOTE If the detail specification requires spec
22、ial preconditioning of the specimen, all the necessary equipment detailed in the relevant documents describing such conditioning would also be required. 3.3 Mounting If mounting of the specimen is appropriate, it shall be as specified in the detail specification. 3 BS EN 60512-15-6:20084 Test method
23、 Unless otherwise stated in the detail specification, 3 connectors shall be tested. 4.1 Procedure A specified force shall be applied in the direction of separation of the mated pair, at a rate not exceeding 25 mm/min, or as specified in the detail specification, until the specified force is applied.
24、 This shall then be maintained for 15 s. The force shall then be removed. NOTE 1 For some heavy-duty connectors, rates above 25 mm/min may be requested by the detail specification in order to achieve the specified load in a reasonable time. The force may be applied either through the cable bundle or
25、 through the main body of the connector housing, as specified in the detail specification. Unless otherwise specified in the detail specification, an electrical continuity shall be monitored throughout the test. NOTE 2 In the case of the application of force through the cable bundle, it may be that
26、either contacts are dislodged from the housing, or the cables break. In which case, the testing laboratory should refer to the manufacturer(s) of the connector, with a view to revision of the detail specification through their National Committee. 4.2 Measurements 4.2.1 Before testing Visual examinat
27、ion according to IEC 60512-1-1 shall be done. 4.2.2 During testing The connectors shall remain fully engaged. Unless otherwise specified by the detail specification, electrical continuity monitoring shall be done according to IEC 60512-2-5. There shall be no electrical discontinuity greater than 1 s
28、 or as specified by the detail specification. 4.2.3 After testing Visual examination according to IEC 60512-1-1 shall be done. Special attention shall be given to the operation of coupling and retaining devices. 5 Details to be specified When this test is required by a detail specification the follo
29、wing shall be given therein: a) number of connectors to be tested (if other than 3); b) any preconditioning required; c) wiring of the specimen, cable bundle support means may be specified; d) axial force to be applied, point of application, rate of application if other than that given in 4.1; e) el
30、ectrical monitoring, if necessary, and allowable period of discontinuity, if other than given in 4.2.2; f) if any displacement is permitted; g) any deviation from the standard test method. _ 4 BS EN 60512-15-6:2008Annex ZA (normative) Normative references to international publications with their cor
