), industry professionals often refer to alternative standards like . Key Requirements of DIN EN 60352-2
It specifies the necessary pull-out force (tensile strength) that a connection must withstand to prevent accidental detachment.
The standard provides guidance on wire preparation (cutting and stripping) and the selection of appropriate crimping tools and barrel materials. Testing Schedules din en 60352-2 pdf
Requirements include maximum allowable contact resistance and specific test currents to ensure efficient power or signal transmission without overheating.
is the definitive technical standard for solderless crimped connections used in electrical and electronic equipment . It establishes the general requirements, standardized test methods, and practical guidance needed to ensure that crimped connections remain electrically stable and mechanically secure throughout their service life. Scope and Applicability Scope and Applicability To verify compliance, DIN EN
To verify compliance, DIN EN 60352-2 outlines two primary testing paths:
Connections are tested against atmospheric conditions, including temperature rapid changes, dry heat, and damp heat, to simulate long-term field use. Scope and Applicability To verify compliance
Focuses on standard copper or copper alloy materials. It primarily involves pull-out force tests and current loading cycles on a set number of samples.
Note that this standard specifically the crimping of coaxial cables. For wire sections exceeding 10 mm2m m squared mm2m m squared
