Aging
Contact Retention
Procedure
Contacts removed and
reinserted 10 times using
applicable tools
Axial load applied to
contact to displace to the
rear of the connector
Connectors subjected to
1500 volts rms at sea
level
Connectors subjected to
five cycles of temperature
change (-55°C and +125°C)
Connectors vibrated
(wired and mated).
Contacts wired in series
with 100 milliamperes
flowing during the test
Connectors shocked
50 G (wired and mated).
Contacts wired in series
with 100 milliamperes
flowing during the test
Connectors mated and
unmated 25 times with tin
plated contacts and 500
times with gold plated
contacts
Mated connectors
subjected to 5% salt
spray for 48 hours
a. Test wire is pushed
into mated connectors
b. Mated connectors
subjected to circulating
talcum powder
Water is projected through
jets against mated
connector from any direction
and then temporarily
immersed in water

subjected to a temperature
of +125°C for 200 hours
Measurement made
between adjacent contacts
with connector mated
Mated connectors
subjected to 10 days
moisture test
