17、rs (AECMA). The alphanumerical designation of the Parts of EN2591 has been abandoned for a numerical designation in line with the Internal Regulations of CEN/CENELEC. This European Standard is the integral reproduction of the European Standard EN2591-B1 after application of this decision, without an
18、y other modification than the change in numbering. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August1996, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August1996. Ac
19、cording to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Swed

It shall be used together with EN2591. 2 Normative references This European Standard inco
21、rporates by dated or undated reference provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this Euro
22、pean Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies. IEC 50 (302), International electrotechnical vocabulary Chapter 302: Electrical measuring instruments. EN 2591, Aerospace series Elements of electric
23、al and optical connection Test methods General. 3 Preparation of the specimens 3.1 They shall be fitted with their wired contacts and mated. The contacts concerned shall not have been subjected to any prior fatigue tests or heating at rated current. 3.2 Unless indicated in the technical specificatio
24、n or EN2591, the following details shall be specified: measuring points; type of cable; test temperature; permissible limits of contact resistance. 4 Apparatus The measuring instruments shall be of accuracy class1,5 for current and0,5 for voltage seeIEC50(302). A schematic diagram of the test appara
25、tus is shown inFigure 1: Figure 1 I = Test direct current M 1 = d.c.ammeter (optional) for adjusting current to1 A when the measuring circuit is open. R 1 = 0,020 W. resistor. The use of an ammeter shunt providing a20mV potential drop at terminals under1A is suggested. R 2 = 0,2 W min. resistor. Thi
26、s resistor may be used for limiting and measuring current. It may be replaced by a d.c.centre zero,100mA full scale,1% precision milliammeter. If this apparatus has a shunt resistance below0,2 W, add an additional resistor to reach a total of min.0,2W. S 1 = Reversing switch, central position, open.
27、EN2591-201:1996 4 BSI 10-1999 To prevent rupturing of the insulting films on the contacts, the measuring circuit e.m.f. in open circuit, shall not exceed20mV d.c The test current shall not exceed10mA d.c 5 Method 5.1 Measurements shall be carried out with d.c.current in both directions. 5.2 Number o
28、f contacts to be measured per size SeeTable 1 Table 1 5.3 Procedure The contact resistance shall be measured as shown inFigure 2. The specimen shall not be unmated while the measuring voltage is applied. During the measurements, care shall be taken to avoid movement of the test cables in order to el
29、iminate stresses on the contacts. The resistance of the cable or wire used shall be subtracted from the measured value. The corrected value shall be recorded. The measurement shall be made three times in each direction of current. The value retained is the average of the three cycles (i.e.six measur
30、ements). 5.4 Requirement The mean value and the value of each measurement shall not exceed the specified value. Number of contacts of the same size in an element of connection: N Minimumpercentagetobemeasured: % N k 5 100 5 130 10 a a The result shall be, if necessary, raised to the next full number
