3.4.5 Pigtail wire. Insulated wire shall be in accordance with SAE AS22759/11, DSCC Drawing 04035,
SAE AS22759/33, except SAE AS22759/33 is acceptable for space applications. (Note: Corrosion has
been experienced with connectors that are prewired in accordance with SAE AS22759/33 and stored in a
sealed environment. This should be considered when using, packaging and storing connectors using this
wire. There are no established industry standards for test procedures or acceptable outgas product
levels for these wires). Uninsulated wire shall be in accordance with A-A-59551, except shall be gold
plated or tin-lead plated with a minimum of 3 percent lead in accordance with the individual specification
sheet.
3.5 Performance. Connectors shall be designed to meet the performance requirements specified
herein.
3.5.1 Magnetic permeability. The relative permeability shall not exceed 2.0 when measured as
3.5.2 Mating and unmating force. The maximum mating and unmating force shall not exceed a value
equal to 10 ounces times the number of contacts. Testing shall be as specified in 4.5.4.
3.5.3 Contact retention. Contacts for connectors shall be retained in the insulators by a 5-pound
minimum force as specified in 4.5.5.
3.5.4 Dielectric withstanding voltage. Mated or unmated connectors shall show no evidence of
breakdown or flashover when subjected to the test voltages and altitude in table I. Corona shall not be
considered as specified in 4.5.6.
