USCAR12-5: ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR DESIGN CRITERIA

Features

Issuing Committee: USCAR

Scope

Content

This document gives specific and measurable design criteria to be applied at a design review prior to tooling. The specification is formatted as a checklist to aid in its use. The requirements do not apply in all situations so engineering judgment must be used. This is a specification for design criteria; applicable performance specifications (USCAR-2, etc.) must still be performed.

Items in this document are grouped by component as follows:

A
Terminals
B
Secondary Terminal Locks
C
Connectors
D
Connector Locks
E
Secondary Connector Locks (Connector Position Assurance, CPA)
F
Connector Seals
G
Serviceability
H
High Voltage (≥60V) Application Requirements
I
Drawing and General Requirements

Meta Tags

Topics: Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA)
Connectors and terminals
Wiring
Electric cables
Finite element analysis
High voltage systems
Assembling
Airbag systems
Rapid prototyping
