Overview
ISO 3412:1992 - "Road vehicles - Screened and waterproof spark‑plugs and their connections - Types 1A and 1B" - is an International Standard that specifies the essential dimensional characteristics and connection details for screened, waterproof spark‑plugs used in spark‑ignition engines. Published in December 1992 (3rd edition), it replaces the 1979 edition and extends coverage to include Type 1B plugs. The standard includes tabulated thread dimensions and illustrative figures showing critical shapes and reference quantities.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Defines main characteristics of Types 1A and 1B screened, waterproof spark‑plugs and their electrical/mechanical connections for road vehicles.
- Thread and dimensional data: Tabulates major, pitch and minor diameters for plug threads and connector threads; figures provide dimensional reference points. Dimensions below a specified section line conform to the relevant spark‑plug thread standards.
- Connector specification:
- 5/8‑24 UNEF‑2B connector thread for the plug connector.
- Hexagon size: 19 mm across flats (minimum 21 mm across corners).
- Connector must provide watertightness, reliable electrical contact, and screening against radio‑electric radiation.
- Compatibility: References to other ISO standards for plug/cylinder‑head interfaces - notably ISO 1919, ISO 2345 and ISO 2346 (e.g., plug threads such as M14 x 1.25 and M18 x 1.5) - ensure interchangeability with cylinder head bores and threads.
- Normative and informative content: Annex A is informative (bibliography and related types).
Practical applications
- Ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility between spark‑plugs, connectors and engine cylinder heads in automotive design, manufacturing and maintenance.
- Guides:
- Automotive OEMs specifying ignition components.
- Aftermarket spark‑plug and connector manufacturers designing screened and waterproof products.
- Parts engineers and quality labs verifying dimensional tolerances and thread fit.
- Service and repair operations selecting compatible spark‑plugs and waterproof connectors for engines operating in harsh or electromagnetic‑sensitive environments.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 3412 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 22, ßoad vehicles, Sub-Committee SC 1, Ignition equipment.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition
(ISO 3412:1979), which has been extended to include type 1 B spark-
plugs.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération
mondiale d’organismes nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de
I’ISO). L’élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée aux
comités techniques de I’ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une
étude a le droit de faire partie du comite technique créé à cet effet. Les
organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernemen-
tales, en liaison avec I’ISO participent également aux travaux. L’ISO colla-
bore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI)
en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques
sont soumis aux comités membres pour vote. Leur publication comme
Normes internationales requiert l’approbation de 75 % au moins des co-
mités membres votants.
La Norme internationale ISO 3412 a été élaborée par le comité technique
lSO/K 22, Véhicules routiers, sous-comité SC 1, Équipement
d’allumage.
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxieme édition
(ISO 3412:1979), dont elle constitue une révision technique incluant les
