Th

43、e voltage drop across that leg ofthe mated pair shall be measured and recorded. The procedureshall be repeated on the same leg of the mated connector pairbut with reversed polarity. The average of the two measuredvoltage drops shall be calculated to eliminate thermoelectricaleffects. The contact res

44、istance in ohms is then computed bydividing the average drop in volts by the current in amperes.9.2.2 The entire procedure of 9.2.1 is then repeated for theother half (negative leg) of the mated connector pair.9.2.3 The contact resistance value for each leg must bewithin the limit given in Table 3.9

45、.2.4 Alternate test methods may be used if agreeable toboth the supplier and the purchaser. In such event, the testmethod to be used shall be identified.9.3 Thermal Gradient Test:9.3.1 Apparatus:9.3.1.1 Heated Chamber, obtain or construct a chambermade of suitable heat resisting materials. Use Fig.

46、3 as ageneral guide for construction. A controlled heat source otherthan light bulbs may be used.9.3.1.2 Test Panel, fabricated and fitted similar to thatshown in Fig. 3. The small, removable, central panel throughwhich the plug and jack are mated should be made ofelectrically insulating, heat-resis

47、tant material not more thanabout 0.032 in. (0.8 mm) thick. This central panel should besomewhat larger than the outside dimensions of the connectorsto be tested. The panel is pierced with two clearance holesthrough which the connector prongs pass during the test. Athird hole is provided alongside th

48、e connector location throughwhich a single length of duplex thermocouple wire can pass.9.3.1.3 Measuring Instrument, a temperature indicating in-strument with capability of resolving thermocouple measure-ments to 0.1 C or better. A millivolt measuring instrumentwith the capability of resolving 1 mic

49、rovolt can also be used,but the results will need to be correlated to temperature9.3.2 Test Specimen Preparation:9.3.2.1 For uniformity of test results, use 24AWG (0.020 in.or 0.5 mm diameter) thermocouple wire or extension wire ofthe type corresponding to the connector to be tested. Largerdiameter wire will produce higher values of measured testdifference, while smaller diameter wire will produce lowervalues.9.3.2.2 Cut (in half) a continuous length of appropriateduplex thermocouple wire.
