3.8 Crimp tensile
strength
(see note 3)
Subject crimped terminal to
direct pull at a rate of 25-50
mm/min
(The wire insulation must be cut
to avoid the plastic material
contribution to the wire crimp
tensile)

3 mV / A Max, (6mV/A Max. for steel
version).
(Before and after ten in/out operations).
3.10 Insulation resistance Test between adjacent contacts
of connector assemblies.
500 Vd.c., hold 1 min.
10 MΩ Min. for Brass and Phos.
Bronze versions and 100 MΩ Min. for
Steel Nickel plated versions.
3.11 Dielectric
withstanding voltage
Test between adjacent contacts
of connector assemblies.
1000 V rms hold 1 minute for Brass
and Phos. Bronze versions and 1750 V
rms hold 1 minute for steel nickel
plated versions.
3.12 Current overload a) For 1 hour apply a current
of 1.5 times the one
specified at point 3.9 (point
2.3 for Steel version) to one
way only
b) For 1 hour apply the 70% of
the current specified at point
3.9 to all the ways of the
connector
Millivolt drop 6 mV/A Max
(8 mV/A Max for Steel version)
