Overview
EN 4165-020:2007 is a CEN product standard in the EN 4165 aerospace series that defines the coupling system keyway for receptacles used with rectangular, modular electrical connectors rated for an operating temperature of 175 °C continuous. It specifies the keying arrangement and identification practice for receptacle coupling systems within the EN 4165 family, enabling correct mating and mechanical coding of modular connector assemblies.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and purpose: Specifies the coupling system keyway for receptacles in the EN 4165 rectangular modular connector family (ensures coded coupling to prevent mis-mating).
- Operating temperature: Part of the EN 4165 series for connectors rated to 175 °C continuous.
- Dimensions and drawings: Required dimensions are given in millimetres (see Figure 1 and Figure 2 in the standard).
- Optional features: Provision for an optional sealing nut design on the receptacle coupling system.
- Identification / coding: Color-coded nuts and identification codes are defined (see Figure 2), providing a simple visual coding method for coupling keys. The standard shows color/name-to-code mappings for nut identification.
- Designation format: Example designation approach is given (for example: EN4165R01, where “R” indicates receptacle).
- Referenced technical specifications: Details for testing, material, general connector requirements and terms are referenced to EN 4165-001 and related EN 4165 product standards.
Applications and who uses it
- Aerospace electrical system designers selecting modular rectangular connectors for high-temperature environments.
- Connector manufacturers and component suppliers implementing standardized keyways and color-coding for receptacles.
- System integrators and harness manufacturers who require coded mating to prevent installation errors and ensure interchangeability.
- Quality, procurement and maintenance teams verifying part identification, compatibility and compliance with EN 4165 connector families.
Practical benefits include reduced mis-mating risk, consistent part identification, and interoperability across EN 4165-based connector products used in aircraft and aerospace equipment.
