***WARNING*** No electrical connector, terminal, or related component may be represented as having met USCAR/EWCAP specifications unless conformance to all applicable requirements of this specification have been verified and documented. All required verification and documentation must be done by the supplier of the part or parts. If testing is performed by another source, it does not relieve the primary supplier of responsibility for documentation of all test results and for verification that allsamples tested met all applicable Acceptance Criteria.
1. SCOPE
Procedures included within this specification supplement are, when used in conjunction with SAE/USCAR 2, intended to cover performance testing at all phases of development, production, and field analysis of electrical terminals, connectors, and components that constitute the electrical connection systems in high voltage (60~600V) road vehicle applications. These procedures are applicable to terminals used for In-Line, Header, and Device Connector systems with and without Shorting Bars.
This supplement applies to both sealed and unsealed connection systems.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: In any intended vehicle application, if the products covered by this specification are, or may be, subjected to conditions beyond those described in this document, they must pass special tests simulating the actual conditions to be encountered before they can be considered acceptable for actual vehicle application. By way of example only, this includes products that may be subjected to conditions beyond the extremes of Classes as defined in Tables 5.1.4.1, ~ 5.1.4.5 or those that may be subjected to shock or vibration in the un-sprung portions of a vehicle, such as the wheel hub. Products certified by their supplier as having passed specific applicable portions of this specification are not to be used in applications where conditions may exceed those for which the product has been satisfactorily tested.
The Authorized Person is the final authority as to what tests are to be performed on his or her parts and for what purpose these tests are required. He or she is also the final authority for resolving any questions related to testing to this specification and to authorizing any deviations to the equipment or procedures contained in this specification. Any such deviation must be documented and included in the final test report.
Guidance as to the recommended tests for selected purposes is given in the charts in SAE/USCAR 2 Appendix C and D. In the absence of contrary direction from the Authorized Person in the test request/order, all electrical connectors and their associated terminals and other components are required to meet all applicable portions of SAE/USCAR 2 and this supplement document with the following exception:
Specific tests that are not required or additional test requirements as specified in any document in the hierarchy of Section 3.0.

4. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS AND INFORMATION
See USCAR 2
5. TEST & ACCEPTANCE REQUIREMENTS
5.1 General
The tests detailed in this specification are qualitative in nature and are not expected to stress any part beyond its anticipated application limit, except where tests to failure are specified.
5.1.1 Performance requirements
Connection systems must meet all performance test requirements for the appropriate Class as listed in Tables 5.1.4.1~5.1.4.5
5.1.2 Dimensional characteristics
Part construction shall conform to the dimensions, shape, and detail attributes specified on the latest revision of the applicable part drawing(s).
5.1.3 Material Characteristics
Parts are intended to be in their "as furnished for vehicle assembly" condition when testing begins, unless specific instructions as to any pre-test "conditioning" are contained in the test request/order. For example, electrical terminals typically have residual die lubricant on them when finally assembled into a vehicle. This same condition must prevail for test samples unless part cleaning is specified in the Test Request/Order.
All material used in each test sample shall conform to the material specifications shown on the latest revision of the applicable part drawing(s).
The material hardness specified for electrical terminals refers to the blank strip material and not the finished product because the terminal manufacturing process can modify the hardness values.
5.1.4 Classifications
Connection systems shall be assigned a class designation from the following categories.
5.1.4.1 Temperature classifications
Components to be tested must be assigned a class from the table below according to the expected environment in their intended vehicle application. "Rise" is defined as the temperature rise due to electrical heating caused by the maximum Steady State current flow expected for the component under test. Care must be taken to ensure that the conductor and insulation selected for the application or any test will itself withstand the maximum temperature for the class selected without exceeding the conductor manufacturer's maximum temperature recommendations.

Note also that terminals packaged such that they are surrounded by other terminals will dissipate heat more slowly, and thus experience a higher temperature "rise" with the same current flow, than terminals located on the periphery of a connector. See USCAR 2 Appendix F (design notes)
When "Maximum Temperature" is mentioned with respect to Table 5.1.4.1, the highest ambient temperature in the right column, "Ambient Temperature Range" is to be used unless otherwise specified. If not specified in the Test Request/Order, the Authorized Person is expected to select the appropriate Temperature Classification. Considering the cost of testing and the time it takes, it generally will be best to qualify a given terminal and connector system to the highest possible Temperature Classification.

5.1.5 Testing Headers & Direct Connect Components
See USCAR 2
5.1.6 Terminal Sample Preparation
Terminals used for testing shall be crimped to requirements as defined in SAE/USCAR 21, “Performance Specification for Cable to Terminal Electrical Crimps” Crimp dimension physical characteristics and mechanical pull strength shall be within tolerance as it applies to the respective terminal and wire gage. Crimp both the conductor and insulation grips unless otherwise specified in the individual test procedures. Use the appropriate cable seal as applicable. Assemble insulation displacement type terminals per their manufacturer’s recommended assembly criteria. When testing Header type connectors with mating connectors, prepare samples only for the mating Female Connector. (ref. Section 5.1.5) Record the crimp height and width of a representative group of samples of each terminal (except for insulation displacement type terminals) and number samples for tracking and later identification as appropriate. Crimp information (tooling used to prepare samples, crimp dimensions, and wire type) shall be documented in the test report.
The following note applies to wire harness fabricators: Production crimps shall be tested, validated, and approved separately per SAE/USCAR-21 Performance Specification for Cable-to-Terminal Electrical Crimps based on wire size, stranding, and insulation wall thickness.
5.1.7 Connector and/or Terminal, Mate Cycling
5.1.7.1 Purpose
This procedure preconditions a connection system pair or terminal system pair prior to a test sequence. Connectors may be subjected to repeated mate cycling due to in-plant and/or service repair prior to and during the life of the connector. Complete this procedure only once when conducted as part of a series of test as in section 5.9.
See Table 5.1.4.5 for mating class description and required number of mate cycles.
5.1.7.2 Equipment
None
5.1.7.3 Sample Preparation
No special preparation required.
5.1.7.4 Procedure
Completely cycle (mate and un-mate) each connector or terminal pair the number of times shown in table 5.1.4.5 based on the Mating class identified in the test plan or test request.
When working with terminals only, use caution to assure that mating and un-mating is done along terminal centerlines to prevent side pressure that may distort either terminal.
Re-mate connectors or terminals for one last time in preparation for future test sequences or follow directions in the respective procedure to follow.

5.2.3 CONDUCTOR/TERMINAL ATTACHMENT PULL-OUT FORCE
5.2.3.1 Purpose
This procedure details a standard method to measure the retention capability of crimped terminals to bare or tin coated copper wire or welded .to bare copper wire.
Note: Pull-out force test will not be used to determine electrical performance of the crimp application. It will only be used to determine the mechanical limits of the crimp application for handling purposes. Refer to USCAR 21 for production crimp, process validation requirements.
5.2.3.2 Equipment
1. Measuring device capable of measuring crimp heights and widths.
2. De-crimping tool or other suitable means of opening insulation crimps without damaging the cable conductor. (Note: it is acceptable to make the samples with the insulation crimp not crimped to avoid this step.)
3. Force tester
4. Cable strippers, long-nose pliers and/or side cutters.
5.2.3.3 Samples
1. A minimum of 20 samples is required to be tested for each production crimp height. Data shall be obtained and recorded for minimum, maximum, and nominal crimp heights.
Note: Samples crimped on >5mm2 may be used for electrical testing prior to tensile testing.

5.2.3.4 Procedure
1. Pull-out force test shall be performed on leads with the insulation crimp wings open (not crimped).
2. Pull-out force test shall be performed on taut leads (i.e., remove slack in cable before performing pull-out test to prevent incorrect test results due to “jerking”).
3. Measure and record the conductor crimp and insulation crimp heights and widths in millimeters for each sample.
4. If the insulation crimp is not already open, open the insulation crimp with the de-crimper or other suitable tool so that the pull-out force will reflect only the conductor crimp connection.
5. Visually inspect the de-crimped area to ensure that none of the conductor strands have been damaged. Do not use any samples that have damaged conductor strands.
6. Measure and record pull-out forces in Newtons for each sample.
7. Apply an axial force at a rate between 50 and 250 mm/minute (100 mm/min. is recommended).
8. For double, triple, or multiple crimp setups with conductor sizes within one step, pull the smallest conductor. (e.g. for a .35/.50 double, pull the .35mm2 wire)
9. For double, triple, or multiple crimp setups with conductor sizes more than one step apart, one of the smallest and one of the largest gage size cables must be tested. (e.g. for a .50/1.0 double, pull both wires individually, for a .50/1.0/2.0 triple, pull the .50mm2 and the 2.0 mm2 wires, for a .50/.50/2.0 triple, pull one of the .50 mm2 and the 2.0 mm2 wires.) In this case, 20 samples per wire size tested will be required.
10. Calculate the mean and standard deviation using the following formulas:

5.2.4.2 Application
This test will be used to evaluate crimped shield connections on single conductor shielded cable to be used in wire harnesses intended for sale in the North American Market. This includes braided and foil shield types on single core, multi stranded cable types.
5.2.4.2 Equipment � Force tester � Fixtures
5.2.4.3 Sample preparation
1. Crimped ferrule samples shall be prepared per the specific design requirements of the component under test. These design requirements shall be provided by the component supplier and included as a supplement to the test report. Prepare 10 crimped samples for each wire size and wire size under test. It is recommended (but not required) that the samples be at least 300mm long to facilitate clamping and fixturing.
Note: Where separate insulation grips are used in conjunction with a crimped ferrule type shield terminations, the insulation grip shall not be crimped.
Note: The retention test may be performed on the samples after being subjected to the electrical test 5.4.5. When using the sample previously used for the electrical performance test, each end shall be pull tested separately. It is permissible to cut the sample in half to fixture each ferrule individually. The cable must be securely clamped so there is no movement between the insulation and wire core.

5.2.5 Shield termination Isolation Resistance test (Electrical)
Note: See figure 5.2.6.4 for graphic shielded cable description.
5.2.5.1 Purpose
This test will use isolation resistance to evaluate the affect of the shield/ferrule crimping process. NOTE: This test can be performed as a stand alone test but is often used in conjunction with another test that subjects the insulation to the chance of some form of moisture or other contaminant intrusion. It may also identify any damage to the shield or conductor insulation due to the ferrule crimping process.
5.2.5.2 Equipment � Meg-ohm meter
5.2.5.3 Procedure.
2. Prepare 5 samples with the shield ferrule crimped at the intended design dimension on both ends of the cable. If these samples are to be used for the 5.2.4 ferrule retention test, it is recommended (but not required) that the samples be at least 600mm long to facilitate clamping and fixturing.
3. Set the Meg-ohmmeter to 1,000VDC. Connect one of the Meg-ohmmeter leads to the conductor core and the other lead to the ferrule (terminated) shield.
Note: For special applications, the test voltage may be modified with the approval of the Responsible Person. Note: The Responsible Person shall define the Meg-ohmmeter lead connection method. (Clip, solder, other) 4. Use the Meg-ohmmeter to measure the resistance between the terminated shield and the conductor core.
Apply the test voltage, allow for meter to stabilize. 5. Record the resistance measured and verify conformance to the Acceptance Criteria of Section 5.2.5.4
5.2.5.4 Acceptance Criteria
The isolation Resistance between the core and shield must be >100 M� at 1000 VDC before or after environmental conditioning.

5.9.1 Test sequence general notes
1. Test sequence is the order in which tests are performed. The sequence should be logical and interrelated in order to accurately establish the performance characteristics of the component or assembly.
2. Numbers in the body of charts 5.9.3 ~ 5.9.9 indicate the order in which the tests or conditioning procedures are performed. Where there are duplicate numbers in the same column, the procedures are performed concurrently.
3. Destructive tests should be performed only on samples that are not intended for use in further test sequences. 4. Fixtures and test set-ups should be reviewed by the Authorized Person prior to the start of testing. 5. The sequential test tables in section 5.9 are base sequences and may be altered according to the Authorized
Person's request. 6. The total number of test samples needed for sequential tests is shown at the top of each column. It is important to
note that, where parallel test paths are shown, a separate set of samples is required for each path. The same set of samples is never run through one path and then used again for a parallel test path unless specifically required in the test request/order. Exceptions are noted in each flow chart.

Voltage drop readings and monitoring are not required. (8) In order to reduce sample size, the Pressure/Vacuum Leak (5.6.6) and Submersion (5.6.5) may be run in series. This allows Sequences R and S to be combined and T and U to be combined. When tests are done in series, do not open the connectors as directed in section 5.6.5.4 and 5.6.6.4. Isolation resistance must be run between the PV Leak and Submersion tests.(9) Mat seal terminal insertion per section 5.6.5.3-2, 5.6.6.3-4 may be done prior to beginning the table sequence, or may be done prior to Submersion or P/V Leak.
