BURNDY Master Catalog (20190422)

Small Terminals

General Information

Performance The terminals and splices in this catalog are approved, per SAE-AS7928 and/or UL486, where indicated. Table 1 shows the performance requirements for terminals used in military and commercial equipment. The voltage drops listed are maximum allowable values taken at currents well above rated current for the wires. Tensile values assure that the wires will not become separated from the terminals under reasonably expected stresses. UL tensile values are chosen to reflect the severest expected duty. MIL Specification tensile values apply only to crimp terminations and reflect minimum values that are obtained in good crimp joints. Actual performance of BURNDY terminals exceeds the requirements of Table 1. Typical values are shown in Figures 1-5. For High Temperature applications BURNDY ® YAV series with nickel plating “-NK” suffix provide for continuous operation to 650 ° F and 750 ° F intermittent service.
