This standard establishes the test procedures and test sequencesto be followed when evaluating the performance of electricalconnectors and sockets used in controlled environments.1) Furthermore, it applies to contacts operating underlow level circuit conditions. 2) The assumption is madethat the contacts are metal. Polymer contacts, or other contacttypes, may require a different test methodology.
1) Controlled environments are classified as no more severe thanclass number G1.2, according to the latest revision of EIA-364(Electrical Connector/Socket Test Procedures IncludingEnvironmental Classifications).
2) The applied voltage, generally < 50 millivolts, is notsufficient to break through any surface film. For contacts notoperating under low level circuit conditions, such as those used inpower applications; see the latest revision of EIA-364-70 (TestProcedure for Current vs. Temperature Rise of ElectricalConnectors).
