IEC 309 Pin & Sleeve Devices - Performance Specifications - North American Ratings

Electrical
Insulation Resistance	500V for 1 min, Resistance³ 5M1/2
Dielectric Voltage Withstand	3000V for 1 min.
Ground Path Current	See Table 1
Endurance, Connect and Disconnect Cycles	See Table 2
Current Interrupting	Certified for current interrupting at full rated current and voltage.
Overload Test (Power Factor 0.75-0.80)	Tested for current interrupting at 150% of the rated current and 100% of the rated voltage for 50 cycles.

Resistance to Arcing	Continuation of overload test for an additional 200 cycles.

TABLE 1

Ground Path Current Test
Device Rating Amps	Minimum Size Grounding Conductor		Time, Seconds	Test Current, Amps
Device Rating Amps	AWG	mm²	Time, Seconds	Test Current, Amps
20	12	3.3	4	470
30	10	5.3	4	750
60	10	5.3	4	750
100	8	8.4	4	1180

A test current that far exceeds the device rating, is passed through the mating devices and grounding wires.

TABLE 2

Endurance Test
Device Rating Amps	Cycles with Load at Rated Current and Voltage	No-Load Cycles	Sequence
20	5000	0	-
30	1000	1000	Alternating
60	1000	1000	Alternating
100	250	250	Alternating

The test sequence is conducted by using a no-load, followed by a load sequence. The power factor of the load is 0.75 to 0.80.

Mechanical
Mold Stress Relief	70°C (158°F) for 7 hours.
Humidity	32°C (89.6°F), 93% humidity for 7 days (168 hours).
Cable Secureness	See Table 3
Impact	A device is wired with a 90" (2300mm) length of flexible cord and dropped from 30" (760mm) 8 times. The device is then conditioned for 6 hours at -25°C and immediately subjected to a repeated impact test.
Crushing	250 lbs for 1 minute. The device is then conditioned for 6 hours at -25°C and immediately subjected to a repeated crushing test.
Withdrawal Force	See Table 4
Strength of Insulating Base and Support	110 of specified tightening torque on terminal screws.
Polarization Integrity	Matching devices will not mate so that the ground is energized, even when polarization feature is removed and 40lb (180 N) insertion force is applied.

TABLE 3

Cable Secureness Test
Device Rating Amps	Force		Torque		Maximum Displacement
Device Rating Amps	lb.	N	ft-lb.	Nm	Inches	mm
20	30	133	0.4	0.54	3/32	2.38
30	75	333	0.5	0.68	3/32	2.38
60	150	667	1.0	1.4	3/32	2.38
100	150	667	2.0	2.7	3/32	2.38

The flexible cord or cable is simultaneously twisted and pulled. Values for the applied twisting torque and force of pull are shown in Table 3. In all cases the cord displacement is less than 3/32 inches.

100	20	89	1

The pressure exerted by mating contacts of a plug and connector must be sufficient to prevent unintentional withdrawal during normal use. During the test, any locking rings or retaining means are not to be engaged.

Environmental
Flammability	V-2 or better per UL 94 or CSA 22.2 No. 0.6
Ambient Temperature Range	Minimum: -25°C (-13°F) with impact Maximum: 90°C (194°F)
Resistance to Corrosion	Ferrous parts immersed for 10 min. in a 10% solution of ammonium chloride at a temperature of 20°C
Moisture Resistance	Watertight (IP67): Device immersed for 24 hours in water at a temp. of 25°C, the highest point of the device being 2" (5cm) below the water level. Splashproof (IP44): Device is sprayed with water for 10 minutes and immediately afterwards subjected to splashing water in all directions 360°
UV Resistance	Exposed plastic materials are UV stabalized.
