3.4.5.1 Safety wiring of coupling rings. All threaded coupling rings except SAE-AS34591 shall be designed for safety wiring. At least two holes shall be provided for shell sizes 14 and smaller, and at least three equally spaced holes for connector sizes 16 and larger. These holes shall be of a diameter to accommodate 0.032 inch diameter wire.

3.4.5.2 Shell polarization. Polarization of connectors shall be accomplished by matched integral key and keyway of counterpart connectors. The polarization of counterpart connectors shall take place before coupling rings are engaged.

3.4.5.3 Engagement seal. Pin contact connectors with resilient interfaces, except class A, shall contain sealing means so that the engaged contacts meet with the requirements of 3.4.1.

The design of the seal shall be such that in mated connectors all air paths between adjacent contacts and between contacts and shells are eliminated. There shall be interfacial mating of the engaged connector insert to provide dielectric under compression of 0.005 inch minimum. Plug connectors shall have a peripheral seal. Connector plug shells with threaded coupling rings shall be provided with a static peripheral seal to ensure shell to shell sealing.

3.4.6 Wire sealing.

3.4.6.1 Class D, E, F, K, KS, KT, L, R, U, and W connectors. Class D, E, F, K, KS, KT, L, R, U, and W connectors, except MS3102, MS3402, MS3412, MS3452, SAE-AS34021, and SAE-AS34121 shall be provided with a wire sealing grommet capable of sealing on wires of the sizes specified in table II.

3.8 Temperature cycling (thermal shock). Connectors shall continue to meet the requirements of this specification after being subjected to the temperature extremes specified in 4.6.4.

3.9 Air leakage.

3.9.1 Solder contact receptacles (except class A, B, H, and P). The air leakage rate shall be not greater than one atmospheric cubic inch per hour (4.55 x 10-3 cubic centimeters per second).

The specified leakage rate shall apply through the connector and not through the flange and mounting surface area when tested in accordance with 4.6.5.1.

3.9.2 Class H receptacles. The air leakage rate shall not exceed 0.1 micron cubic foot per hour (1 x 10-6 cubic centimeters per second) when tested in accordance with 4.6.5.2. The specified leakage rate shall apply through the connector and not through the flange and mounting surface area, unless solder mounted.

3.10 Contact retention. The axial displacement of crimp contacts shall not be greater then

0.025 inch and contacts shall be retained in their inserts when subjected to the axial loads specified in 4.6.6 or 4.6.6.1.

3.11 Dielectric withstanding voltage. Connectors shall show no evidence of breakdown or flashover when subjected to the test voltages and altitudes in accordance with 4.6.7. Corona shall not be considered as breakdown.

3.12 Vibration.

3.12.1 Sine vibration. Mated connectors shall not be damaged and there shall be no loosening of parts due to vibration. Counterpart connectors shall be retained in full engagement, and the interruption of electrical continuity shall be not longer than 10 microseconds when tested in accordance with 4.6.8.1 or 4.6.8.2.

3.12.2 Random vibration. A current discontinuity of 10 microseconds or more, disengagement of the mated connectors, evidence of cracking, breaking, or loosening of parts shall be cause for rejection when tested in accordance with 4.6.8.3.

3.13 Shock. Mated connectors shall not be damaged and there shall be no loosening of parts, nor shall there be an interruption of electrical continuity longer than 10 microseconds during the exposure to mechanical shock when tested in accordance with 4.6.9.

3.15 Contact resistance. Contacts in the mated condition shall meet the ambient 25 °C (77 °F) contact resistance requirements of SAE-AS39029 except the potential drop of class H contacts shall be not greater than 125 mV initially or 200 mV after conditioning when tested in accordance with 4.6.11.

3.16 Durability. Counterpart connectors shall show no mechanical or electrical defects detrimental to the operation of the connector after 100 cycles of coupling and uncoupling for crimp contact connectors, or of mating and unmating for solder contact connectors when tested in accordance with 4.6.12.

3.17 Corrosion. Connectors shall show no exposure of the basis metal that will adversely affect performance when tested in accordance with 4.6.13.

3.18 Insulation resistance.

3.18.1 At room temperature. The insulation resistance shall be not less then 5000 megohms when tested in accordance with 4.6.14.1.

3.19 Fluid immersion. Connectors shall mate with their counterpart connectors after fluid immersion in accordance with 4.6.15.

3.20 Firewall (class K connectors). Mated connectors shall prevent passing of a flame through the connector for at least 20 minutes when tested in accordance with 4.6.16. During this period there shall be no flame from outgassing or other causes on the end of the connector protected by the firewall. The current specified in table XV shall be applied for the first 5 minutes without a break in continuity. During the next minute the current drawn by the connector shall be not greater than 2 amperes when a test potential of 100-125 VAC at 60 Hz is applied between adjacent contacts and between contacts and the shell.
