4.2 CURRENT DERATING AND APPLICABLE WIRES
Current is dependent on connector size, contact material, plating, ambient temperature, printed
circuit board characteristics and related factors. Actual current rating is application dependent
and should be evaluated for each application.

TEST CONDITION
Mate connectors: apply a maximum voltage
of 20 mV and a current of 100 mA.
(Does not include wire resistance)
Terminate the applicable wire to the terminal
and measure wire using a voltage of 20 mV
and a current of 100 mA.
Unmate & unmount connectors: apply a
voltage of 500 VDC between adjacent
terminals and between terminals to ground.
Unmate connectors: apply a voltage of {two
times the rated voltage plus 1000 volts} VAC
for 1 minute between adjacent terminals and
between terminals to ground.
Measure between adjacent terminals at 1
MHz.
