a)
Requirements The oscillating member is moved backwards and forwards through an angle of 90° (45° on either side of the vertical). The rate of bends shall be 60 per minute. One bending is one movement, either backwards or forwards. The number of bends is 100. During this test, there shall be no interruption of the test current. After the test there shall be no damage; the cable support sleeve shall not be loosened from the body and the insulation shall show no signs of abrasion or of wear and tear. Measurement of clearances and creepage distances Clearances and creepage distances shall be measured according to Annex B with the following additional requirements For connectors without breaking capacity, clearances and creepage distances to the accessible surface shall be measured only in the mated position. For multi-way connectors the requirements for double or reinforced isolation between active parts with different potential shall be determined in mated and unmated condition. The surface of an unenclosed connector to be incorporated into an equipment or a device shall not be regarded as accessible, unless otherwise claimed by the manufacturer Dielectric strength During dielectric strength test no breakdown of test voltage shall occur. The insulation shall be tested according to the following tests: Impulse withstand test impulse withstand test shall be carried out with a voltage having a 1,2/50 µs waveform according to IEC 60060-1 with three impulses of each polarity and an interval of at least 1s between impulses. The output impedance of the impulse generator should not be higher than 500Ω according to table 2.

Mechanical strength at lower temperatures The specimens and the test apparatus shall be stored for 5 h at a temperature of -40 °C or the minimum ambient temperature specified by the manufacturer, if lower, on a steel plate of 20 mm thickness. The test shall be carried out immediately after the storage duration in the cold chamber. Test shall be carried according to the following procedure: Four impacts on the specimen, an energy of 1 J with an appropriate impact test apparatus according to IEC 60068-2-75 shall be carried out at four uniformly distributed positions on the circumference. The test is passed successfully if no damage appeared which may impair the function of the connector and the dielectric strength test of 6.3.8 b) has been passed.

Terminations and connecting methods The following applicable tests shall be conducted: for crimped connections, visual tests on the crimp barrel and tensile strength test of the crimp connection as specified in IEC 60352-2. If deviations to IEC 60352.2 exist, the tensile strength according to IEC 60352-2 and the dimensions according to the manufactures specifications are tested to fulfil IEC 61984; There shall be no defect found that would be Impair the validity of the test for insulation displacement connections, visual examination is carried out on parts for insulation displacement terminals as per IEC 60352-3:1993, 12.1 and for solderless nonaccessible displacement terminals as per IEC 60352.4:1994, 12.2.4. electrical and thermal tests are carried out as per IEC 61984 for press-in connections, visual and dimensional tests on the press-in post and test of the push-out force as specified in IEC 60352-5; insulation piercing connections according to IEC 60352-6 or IEC 60998-2-3 for the screwless-type clamping unit, mechanical tests on the conductor connection as specified in IEC 60999-1 or IEC 60999-2 or IEC 60352-7; for the screw-type clamping unit mechanical tests on the conductor connection as specified in IEC 60999-1 or IEC 60999-2. For prepared conductors the manufacturer’s instructions for the preparation applies for flat, quick-connect terminations. Flat, quick-connect terminations, which are definitely not designed according to IEC 61210 can be used if the test program according to IEC 61984 is met.
