European foreword
This document (prEN 3155-005:2024) has been prepared by ASD-STAN.
After enquiries and votes carried out in accordance with the rules of this Association, this document has
received the approval of the National Associations and the Official Services of the member countries of
ASD-STAN, prior to its presentation to CEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 3155-005:2019.
This document includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 3155-005:2019:
— normative references updated;
— scope: extension of compatible connector classes in EN 2997 series;
— Figure 3 test sample configuration updated;
— specification of contact types F and V in different clauses of the document.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national standards body.
A complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CEN website.
1 Scope
This document specifies the required characteristics and tests applicable to female electrical
contacts 005, type A, crimp, class T, used in elements of connection according to EN 3155-002.
It is used together with EN 3155-001.
The associated male contacts are specified in EN 3155-004.
The contacts specified by this standard are applicable for connector classes specified in EN 2997 series.
This document specifies two contact types (F and H) depending on connector class.
