Connectors for electrical and electronic equipment - Product requirements - Part 3-126: Rectangular connectors - Detail specification for 5-way power connector for industrial environments with push-pull locking (IEC 61076-3-126:2023)

IEC 61076-3-126:2023 covers 5-pole rectangular connectors for electric power supply up to 16 A per pole. These connectors consist of fixed and free connectors, both either rewirable or non-rewirable. This document employs the general function principles of the push-pull connector housing system described in IEC 61076‑3‑117 with IP65/IP67 degree of protection according to IEC 60529 for harsh applications.
Male connectors have pin contacts with square cross-section with 1 mm side. Connectors according to this document are without breaking capacity COC according to IEC 61984, therefore they are not intended to be engaged or disengaged in normal use when live or under load.

Steckverbinder für elektrische und elektronische Einrichtungen - Produktanforderungen - Teil 3-126: Rechteckige Steckverbinder - Bauartspezifikation für 5 polige Stromversorgungs-Steckverbinder für industrielle Umgebungen, mit Push-pull-Verriegelung (IEC 61076-3-126:2023)

Connecteurs pour équipements électriques et électroniques - Exigences de produit - Partie 3-126: Connecteurs rectangulaires - Spécification particulière pour les connecteurs de puissance 5 voies destinés aux environnements industriels avec verrouillage de type pousser-tirer (IEC 61076-3-126:2023)

IEC 61076-3-126:2023 couvre les connecteurs rectangulaires à 5 pôles pour alimentation électrique jusqu’à 16 A par pôle. Ces connecteurs sont constitués de connecteurs fixes et libres, recâbleables ou non. Le présent document utilise les principes de fonction généraux du système de boîtier de connecteur push-pull décrit dans la norme CEI 61076-3-117 avec degré de protection IP65/IP67 conformément à la norme CEI 60529 pour les applications difficiles. Les connecteurs mâles ont des contacts à broches de section carrée de 1 mm de côté. Les connecteurs selon le présent document sont sans COC de capacité de rupture selon la CEI 61984, ils ne sont donc pas destinés à être enclenchés ou désengagés dans des conditions normales d’utilisation sous tension ou sous charge.

Konektorji za električno in elektronsko opremo - Zahteve za izdelek - 3-126. del: Pravokotni konektorji - Podrobna specifikacija za 5-potni napajalni konektor z zaskočnim zaklepanjem za industrijska okolja (IEC 61076-3-126:2023)

Standard IEC 61076-3-126:2023 zajema 5-polne pravokotne konektorje za električno napajanje do 16 A na pol. Ti konektorji so sestavljeni iz pritrjenih in prostih konektorjev z možnostjo ponovnega ožičenja ali brez. Ta dokument vsebuje splošna načela funkcij zaskočnega ohišja za konektorje, ki so opisane v standardu IEC 61076-3-117 s stopnjo zaščite IP65/IP67 v skladu s standardom IEC 60529 za zahtevno uporabo.
Moški konektorji imajo kontakte z zatiči s kvadratnim presekom s stranico 1 mm. Konektorji po tem dokumentu so brez zmogljivosti prekinitve COC skladno s standardom IEC 61984 in niso zasnovani za odklop ali priklop pri običajni uporabi, ko so pod napetostjo ali obremenitvijo.
