Good Afternoon, I have a brief question about IEC 801-3 test methodology: When conducting air discharges, is it legitimate to discharge to pins on unterminated connectors ? What about a case where the air discharge is not directed at the pins but rather the connector shell, but ultimately arcs over to the pins ? In this case, is this test point legit, or is this particular dicharge deleted from the test data and repeated ?
As always, thanks to all who may reply, J.C. Fix, P.E.
