I would appreciate pointers for locating ring and quick disconnect crimp hardware which are approved for multiple conductor use.
I've had conversations with two major manufacturers so far. One confirmed a quick disconnect terminal family that supports multiple conductors provided that the summed cross sectional area (CMA) is within spec. The other said that they don't have any such hardware. The conversations occurred after sorting through datasheets, tracking down crimp guides, looking at qualification data, etc. My search method may be sub-optimal and I am open to suggestions. I am more interested in ring terminals at this point. Feel free to reply off-line if there are an issues with mentioning supplier names. I also read these archive threads where it appears that crimping has been discussed to some extent, but I didn't catch any "multiple conductor per crimp" commentary. 2015 "Shrink-wrap on soldered connections" 2004 "EN 60950 earth terminal requirements" 2001 "Double Crimp - History Request" 2000 "Double Retention" 1999 "Ground lugs" Thanks! -Adam - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
