Specifies requirements for dimensions, performance characteristics and test programme.

This International Standard is applicable to flat quick-connect terminations consisting of male tabs with hole or dimple detents and the mating female connectors. For reasons of safety, it is recommended that quick-connect terminations beyond the scope of this standard shall not be interchangeable with those listed in Clause 4. This standard establishes uniform requirements for the dimensions, performance characteristics and test program.
