What is PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 - Rectangular connectors about?
PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 is the a part of an international standard series on connectors that specifies the test methods and characteristics. Using PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126, you can design the rectangular connectors and improve the quality of the electronic devices.
PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 covers rectangular IP65/IP67 connectors with 5 poles for electric power supply up to 16 A. These connectors consist of fixed and free connectors, either rewireable or non-rewireable (for both portions). It uses the general function principles of the push-pull connector housing system described in IEC 61076-3-117 with IP65/IP67 degree of protection according to IEC 60529 for harsh applications.
Male connectors have 5 square 1 mm electric contacts, with 16 A rated current. Connectors according to PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 are without breaking capacity COC according to IEC 61984. Therefore, they are not intended to be engaged or disengaged in normal use when live or under load, if not otherwise specified by the manufacturer.
Who is PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 - Rectangular connectors for?
PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 on Connectors for electrical and electronic equipment is useful for:
- Manufacturers of electronic devices
- Construction of the building
- Manufacturers of automotive part
- Electronic engineers
- Architects
Why should you use PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 - Rectangular connectors?
By using PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 best practice guidance, you can determine the current carrying capacity of connectors and the ability to resist the insulation. With the help of PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126, you can identify the effectiveness of the connector coupling devices. The dimensions mentioned in PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 are useful in designing and constructing the free and fixed connectors. The characteristics help in identifying the reusable material in connectors which can be recycled. This helps in keeping the environment clean and safe.
PD IEC/PAS 61076-3-126 specifies the test methods and mechanical, electrical and technical characteristics. These characteristics and test method helps in manufacturing the good quality electronic devices.
