Standards Development
This International Standard specifies the design requirements (and tests) for the crimping of insulated and non-insulated terminations to general purpose electrical cables for aircraft, with conductors of copper, copper alloy, aluminium or aluminium alloy, in locations in which the stabilized conductor temperature does not exceed the values specified for the relevant type of cable, i.e. 105 °C, 190 °C or 260 °C. The type of cable with which the terminations are intended to be made has to be declared (see 4.1).
The International Standard also contains recommendations relating to the inspection of such connections and the tools used to perform the crimping operation. Since satisfactory crimping is dependent upon the maintenance and setting of tools it also contains recommendations for tests to confirm their serviceability.
Testing of crimped joints to assess their suitability for aircraft shows that certain environmental conditions, for example vibration, have no significant effect on the performance of the joints. It has therefore not been considered necessary to provide for such tests in this International Standard.
