Connectors for electronic equipment - Tests and measurements - Part 16-3: Mechanical tests on contacts and terminations - Test 16c: Contact-bending strength (IEC 60512-16-3:2008)

This part of IEC 60512, when required by the detail specification, is used for testing electrical 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 part of IEC 60512 is to detail a standard test method to determine the ability of a contact to withstand a specified bending moment or force. If so specified in the detail specification, forces other than bending may be applied. Although this test is illustrated for the mating area of cylindrical contacts, and is particularly applicable to those with a mating diameter of 1,2 mm or less, its use for contacts with other geometries is not excluded. In which case, the detail specification shall contain sufficient detail, given under Clause 6, i), j) and k), to enable the test to be done. Furthermore, it may be used for any part of a connector (such as a keying or polarizing device; cable support or contact latching feature) provided that sufficient detail is given in the detail specification.

La CEI 60512-16-3:2008 détaille une méthode d'essai normalisée pour déterminer l'aptitude d'un contact à résister à un moment ou à une force de flexion spécifié(e). Si la spécification particulière le précise, des forces différentes de la flexion peuvent être appliquées.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure tha
