Pulse (Surge) Current: Highest instantaneous current that will run
through a system.
REACH: The European Community Regulation on chemicals and their
safe use. It deals with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and
Restriction of Chemical substances.
Reducing Bushing: Separate tubular sleeve used to downsize the
diameter of a crimp barrel to accept a smaller size wire.
Reeled Contacts: Contacts attached to a feeder strip for use in a high
volume crimping tool.
Resistance: The opposition to the passage of an electric current
through that element. Abbreviated as “R”.
RoHS: Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive. The European
directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances
in electrical and electronic equipment.
Sacrificial Tip: An area of a contact system that absorbs electric arching
to limit damage to the actual mating surface of the contacts.
Self-Wiping: The sliding action which occurs when contacts are mated.
Wiping has the effect of removing small amounts of contamination
from the contact surfaces, establishing better conductivity.
Spring Loaded: A means of providing contact normal force with the
use of a mechanical spring.
Storage Battery: A voltaic battery consisting of two or more storage
cells. Energy is accumulated by chemical activity in the charging
process and released on demand in the form of electric current.
Strain Relief: A means of termination or installation that reduces the
transfer of mechanical stress from the conductor.
Termination: Means of joining contacts to a conductor.
Touch Safe: See “Finger Proof”
Turret / Positioner: See “Locator”
TUV: The TÜV Rheinland Group is provider of technical services that
certifies products to standards written by other organizations.
UL: Underwriters Laboratory, a safety standard writing and testing
organization.
Volts: Measurement increment of electric potential. Abbreviated as “E”.
VDE: A German standard writing and testing organization responsible
standards and safety specifications covering the areas of electrical
engineering, electronics and information technology.
Watt: Measurement increment of electric power. Abbreviated as “W”.
