What is BS EN 3645-009 - Protective cover for receptacle about?
BS EN 3645-009 specifies the characteristics of protective covers for receptacles in the family of bayonet coupling circular connectors intended for use in an operating temperature range of -65 °C to 175°C or 200°C continuous.
It applies to models defined in Table 2.
Who is BS EN 3645-009 - Protective cover for receptacle for?
BS EN 3645-009 on the receptacle cover for electrical connectors is useful for:
- Spacecraft and space products manufacturers
- Aerospace and defence industries
- Aerospace avionic electrical and fibre optic technology
- Design engineers for electrical contacts
- Aerospace electric equipment manufacturers
- Quality control personnel for electrical contacts
Why should you use BS EN 3645-009 - Protective cover for receptacle?
Receptacle covers are designed to prevent people from coming into contact with (that is, touching) properly installed live electrical parts that are inside the switch/receptacle box.
The guidelines provided in BS EN 3645-009 helps to select the right receptacles covers as well as a connector as they improve the production process and if an electronic component fails, the failed component can be replaced when an electrical connector is installed.
BS EN 3645-009 covers the terms and definitions, required characteristics, designation, markings, and technical specifications of the electrical connector with rectangular inserts on the receptacle.
BS EN 3645-009 helps design engineers in designing protective cover for receptacles as per specifications that enhance the reliability of their products. By adopting BS EN 3645-009, manufacturers can demonstrate the reliability of their products and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
