BS EN 61210:2010

This standard BS EN 61210:2010 Connecting devices. Flat quick-connect terminations for electrical copper conductors. Safety requirements is classified in these ICS categories:

• 29.120.20 Connecting devices
• 29.080.20 Bushings
• 29.120.30 Plugs, socket-outlets, couplers

IEC 61210:2010 applies to non-insulated flat quick-connect terminations consisting of a male tab of size 2,8 mm, 4,8 mm, 6,3 mm or 9,5 mm with hole or dimple detents and a mating female connector for use as either an incorporated or an integrated part of an equipment or of a component, or as a separate entity. This standard establishes uniform requirements for the dimensions, performance characteristics and test program. The connected electrical copper conductors shall be flexible or rigid stranded, having a cross-sectional area up to and including 6 mm2 or rigid solid having a cross-sectional area up to and including 2,5 mm2. This standard shall not be used for connecting aluminum conductors. The rated voltage shall not exceed 1 000 V a.c. with a frequency up to and including 1 000 Hz, and 1 500 V d.c., and having the temperature limits applicable to materials used within this standard. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1993 and constitutes a merge between the first edition of IEC 61210 published by SC23F and IEC 60760 published in 1989 by SC48B. This second edition does not introduce major technical modifications.
