EIA 364-09-D-2018 PDF Download

The EIA 364-09-D-2018 standard provides a set of guidelines for testing the durability and reliability of electrical connectors and contacts. The purpose of this standard is to simulate the expected life of these connectors by subjecting them to repeated mating and unmating actions. The standard outlines the steps and conditions to be followed during the testing process to ensure consistent and accurate results.

The standard aims to determine the effects caused by the repetitive action of connecting and disconnecting electrical connectors. By subjecting the connectors to this conditioning action, the standard allows for the assessment of their durability and performance over time. This testing procedure is crucial in evaluating the connectors' ability to withstand constant use and potential wear and tear.
