Overview

EN 3660-027:2013 is a CEN product standard in the Aerospace series that specifies a range of cable outlets, style A, 45° (unsealed) with cable-tie strain relief intended for use with the connector family referenced by EN 3660-002 / EN 3646. The standard defines physical characteristics, material/finish classes, interface dimensions, identification/marking and the testing regime required to qualify these rear accessories for aerospace electrical and optical connectors.

Key facts:

  • Title: Cable outlet, style A, 45°, unsealed, with cable tie strain relief - Product standard
  • Applicable connector index: EN 3660-002
  • Temperature ranges:
    • Class A: −65 °C to 200 °C
    • Class N: −65 °C to 200 °C
    • Class W: −65 °C to 175 °C
  • Shell sizes covered include standard aerospace sizes (e.g., 08 to 24)

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Dimensions & mass: Detailed dimensional drawings and mass data are provided (Figure 1, Table 1) for each shell size; interface profiles and tooth details are specified (Figures 2–3, Table 2).
  • Materials & finishes: Material/finish is specified by class:
    • Class A: aluminium, black anodized
    • Class N: aluminium, electroless nickel plated
    • Class W: aluminium, olive drab cadmium plated
  • Component parts: Provision for spacer pad per EN 3660-036; wire-lock holes and cable-tie/lacing cord areas are defined.
  • Assembly and test requirements: Assembly torque and coupling thread strength torque values are specified for installation and test purposes. A comprehensive test matrix (environmental, mechanical and electrical) references EN 2591-100 and EN 3660-001, covering shock, vibration, salt mist, temperature cycling, fluid resistance, flammability, ozone, and mechanical strength of rear accessories.
  • Identification & marking: Part-numbering conventions and example identifiers (e.g., EN3660-027N08A) are provided to indicate shell size, material/finish class and spacer pad option.

Applications and users

Who uses EN 3660-027:2013:

  • Aerospace connector manufacturers designing compliant rear cable outlets and accessories
  • Design and systems engineers specifying connector interfaces and cable strain-relief solutions for aircraft and spacecraft
  • Procurement and quality teams verifying part conformity and supplier documentation
  • Test laboratories performing qualification and acceptance tests per aerospace standards Practical applications include cable outlet selection for avionics, electrical harness terminations and optical/electrical connector back-ends where 45° routing and cable-tie strain relief are required.

Related standards

  • EN 3660-001 - Technical specification (cable outlet accessories)
  • EN 3660-002 - Index of product standards / associated connectors
  • EN 3660-036 - Spacer pad for cable outlet, style Z
  • EN 2591-100 - Aerospace test methods (general)

This standard is essential for ensuring dimensional compatibility, environmental performance and mechanical robustness of 45° cable outlets used in aerospace connector assemblies.
