Overview

EN 4644-013:2015 (CEN product standard) specifies the size 1 plug with ground block for disconnect applications in the family of modular rectangular electrical and optical connectors with rectangular inserts. It is part of the aerospace series of high-temperature connector standards covering continuous operating temperatures of 175 °C (or 125 °C). This document defines the plug configuration (classes B and F) intended to mate with receptacles defined in EN 4644-012 and EN 4644-014.

Keywords: EN 4644-013, aerospace connector, rectangular modular connector, size 1 plug, ground block, high-temperature connector, disconnect plug.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and purpose: Product standard for a size 1 plug with integrated ground block used in disconnect applications within the EN 4644 modular connector family.
  • Operating temperature: Continuous rating of 175 °C (or 125 °C) for high-temperature aerospace environments.
  • Mechanical characteristics:
    • Design includes a polarization device (per EN 4644-001).
    • Two self‑locking 4‑40 UNC threads provided for accessories.
    • Housing types include versions without mounting holes (type B).
    • Maximum mass: 45 g.
  • Configuration and designation: Example designation format shown in the standard (e.g., EN 4644-013BBX) indicating shell class, housing type and polarization code.
  • Mating interfaces: Receptacle counterparts established in EN 4644-012 and EN 4644-014; dimensional and interface requirements are referenced by figures in the standard.
  • Normative references: Relies on related EN 4644 parts for terminology, performance, contact arrangements and technical specifications.

Applications

  • Designed for aerospace electrical and optical systems where a compact, high-temperature capable disconnect plug is required.
  • Typical use cases:
    • Avionics and aircraft systems exposed to elevated ambient temperatures (engine bays, environmental control systems).
    • Modular equipment requiring reliable grounding and disconnect capability.
    • Integration into harnesses and assemblies where standardized rectangular modular connectors are specified.

Who should use this standard

  • Aerospace OEMs and subcontractors specifying connector interfaces.
  • Connector manufacturers and component designers developing size 1 plugs with ground blocks.
  • Systems engineers, procurement specialists and maintenance/qualification teams verifying compatibility and regulatory compliance.
  • Test laboratories and certification authorities referencing product standards for conformity assessment.

Related standards
