IEC 60512-5-1 Connectors for Electronic Equipment, Part 5-1: Current Carrying Capacity Tests

The purpose of this test is to detail a standard test method for evaluating the ability of a component to carry its specified current at room temperature without exceeding a specified temperature rise.

Unless otherwise stated, three samples will be used. Samples will be connected with a minimum length of cable as specified in Table 1 and mounted as specified in the detail specifications.

Samples should be equipped with a temperature sensing device whose thermal mass will not significantly affect the temperature measurement. This temperature sensing device should be mounted as close as possible to the hottest part of the contact system, unless otherwise specified.
