3 DEFINITIONS

For the purposes of this standard the following definitions shall apply.

3.1 Aircraft Fixed Connector ( Receptacle )

The connector installed in an aircraft, which accepts an electrical power supply via the ground supply free connector from an external ground source.

3.2 Ground Supply Free Connector ( Plug )

The connector fitted to cables from the external ground source of electrical power, which, when properly fitted to the aircraft fixed connector, permits and electrical supply to be passed to the aircraft.

4 DESTGN AND PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

4.1 General

4.1.1 The ground supply free connector sha!l be robust in construction and capable of with- standing heavy mechanical shocks and hard wear in use, and shall be designed to provide safe handling, for example, by the avoidance of sharp edges.

4.1.2 Aircraft fixed connectors and ground supply free connectors shall be capable of enga- gement, disengagement and operation at ambient temperatures between - 65°C and + 65°C. They shall be capable: of operating at 105”C, allowing for the temperature rise due to current carried by the connectors.

4.2 Polarity of Phase Sequence

Indications of polarity or phase shall be perma- nently marked on the aircraft fixed connectors and the ground supply free connectors at points adjacent to the contacts, as indicated in the relevant figures in IS 7915 : 1976. The markings shall be recessed and shall be marked on the front and rear of the insert of the aircraft fixed connector.

4.3 Current Ratings

4.3.1 Each of the main current-carrying male and female contacts of the fixed and free connectors ( as distinct ~from any cables connected to them ) shall be capable of carry- ing the following currents ( direct current or rms alternating current ).

- 450 A continuously for one hour or more, and

-- 1 500 A for one minute.

4.3.2 Each of the control male and female contacts shall be capable of carrying 35 A continuously.

4.4 Control Current Female Contact

The control current female contact of the d.c. ground supply free connector shall be in two sections, insulated electrically from each other, connected only bv the entry of the control male contact of the a&raft fixed co inector.

4.5 Sealing

The aircraft fixed connector when fitted to the’ aircraft may be required to form a seal in the pressurized structure. The plug shall therefore provide a pressure seal at altitudes up to 31000 m.

4.6 Voltage Rating

The aircraft fixed connectors and ground supply free connectors shall be capable of working

These tests shall be conducted at an ambient temperature of 65%.

NOTE -This test is intended as a test on the male and female contacts acd therefore, for the purposes of this test only, it will be necessary to make each of the main cable terminations on both the aircraft fixed connector and the ground supply free connector suitable for carrying two size 00 cables.

5.3.4.1 Pass a current of 450 A through each of the main current-carrying male and~female con- tacts and 35 A through each of the control current-carrying male and female contacts for a period of one hour. At the end of this time, the following requirements shall be met:

The voltage drop along each of the main current-carrying contacts, measured at the cable connections, shall not exceed 20 mV when carrying 450 A. On the control current-carrying contacts, the voltage drop shall not exceed 10 mVwhen carrying 35 A.

5.3.4.2 After the test described in 5.3.4.1, cool to the ambient temperature specified in 5.2.1, then pass a current of 1 500 A through each of the main current-carrying male and female contacts for a period of one minute.

of between 15 and 25°C. After a period of between one hour and one and a half hours, engage the items and measure the voltage drop. It shall meet the requirements of 5.3.4.1 (b).

5.3.6 High Voltage and Insulation Resistance Tests

Immediately following the salt spray tests described in 5.3.5. the mated fixed and free connectors shall be subjected to the following high voltage and insulation resistance tests.

5.3.6.1 Apply 2000 V rms, 50/60 Hz a. c., for one minute between adjacent contacts and be- tween all co&acts connected together and the shroud. There shall be no electrical breakdown.

One aircraft fixed connector shall be subjected to the vibration test defined in IS 8252 ( Part 14 ) : 1982 except that there is no require- ment to operate the equipment under test.

Wire the fixed connector to two size 00 cables, one to each main current-carrying male contact, and with a size 16 cable to the control male contact. The cables shall be secured to the vibration table at a distance of not less than 400 mm from the fixed connector.

At the conclusion of the test, there shall be no signs of loosening of fixings or cable terminations.

5.3.8 Temperature and Pressure Test ( Aircraft Fixed Connector Only )

Mount the aircraft fixed connector on a suitable panel in such a way that a differential_ air pressure can be applied between the two sides of the panel and leakage through the connector can be measured.

NOTE - This test is intended to detect-leakage through the connector and not the connector Panel interface.

Place the aircraft fixed connector in suitable chamber. Heat the chamber to 105 f l°C over a period of three hours, and maifltain at that temperature for at least sixteen hours. Allow the chamber and specimen contained in

it to cool naturally for seven hours. Then reduce the temperature of the chamber to 65 -& 1°C during the next sixteen hours, and maintain at the temperature for at least four hours. Repeat this temperature cycle. At the end ofthe second 4 h period and while the aircraft fixed connector is still at the minimum temperature, apply a differential air pressure of 140 kPa between the two sides of the mounting panel, the positive pressure being applied on the aircraft side. The leaka.ge of the aircraft plug shall not exceed 1 cm3/min.

5.3.9 Shock Test ( Ground SuppIy Free Connector Only )

ANNEX A

( Clause 5.3.10 ) FLUIDS SUSCEPTIBILITY TEST

A-l GENERAL

Fluids susceptibility test shall only be perfor- med when the equipment will be installed in areas where fluid contamination could be commonly encountered. The fluids contained herein are representative of commonly used fluids encountered in airborne and ground opera- tions. Fluids not listed herein and for which susceptibility tests are indicated shall be includ- ed in the relevant equipment specification and are considered unique.

A-l S Precautions

A-1.1.1 Since many contaminants may have flash points within the test temperature range, care shall be taken to ensure that adequate safety measures are taken to limit the possi- bility of fire or explosion.

A-1.1.2 Since contaminants may themselves, or in combination with the test sample, be toxic. Due consideration shall be given to this possi- bility before commencing the tests.

A-2 CATEGORIES OF EQUIPMENT

A-2.1 Category X

Certain airborne equipments do not have to meet any Auid tests to meet environmerital requirements in the normal operation of civil and many non-civil transport aircraft. In such cases the equipment is not affected by fluids or no fiuid is likely to be in contact with the equipment due to its location and use. When equipment has not experienced fluid tests for either the assembled part or its component, parts shall be identified as Category X.
