Overview
This part of IEC 61300 describes a test to ensure that the coupling mechanism of a connector set or connector and device combination will withstand the axial loads likely to be applied during normal service. The object of this test is to specify a standard test method for determination of the effects of tensile loads on the coupling mechanism of connectors. For use of connectors and their reliable coupling mechanism the application of this test method provides security that the connection remains mated in regular service. Even the lowest vibrations of the building over the life span of the connections represent serious danger for the connection. This test serves to limit this danger. The standard provides manufacturers and test laboratories with security regarding the specification of the test and serves as a reference for quality assurance. The standards for the performance (IEC 61753) and the CENELEC standards of the EN 50377 series refer to the standards of the IEC 61300 series. The responsible Committee is Subcommittee UK 412.7 "LWL-Verbindungstechnik und passive optische Komponenten" ("Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive optical components") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
