        Practical Guide for Electrical Connectors

        The reference book for device development and the use of electrical connectors

        by Herbert Endres

        This book is a reference work for equipment designers and the use of connectors therein. Every designer and consumer receives answers to questions about design, materials, physical basics, contact surfaces, shielding practices, housing and locking designs and applications. Special chapters highlight the most prominent disciplines for electrical connectors: power electronics on one extreme and high data rates on the other. Finally, various technologies in the production process of electronic assemblies and basic selection criteria for electrical connectors are examined. Even though the market is very large with more than 1000 connector manufacturers, the book gives the user assistance in finding the best connector for the application. From the content: What is a connector The connector components Different termination technologies Insulator materials The contact materials The contact point Various contact surfaces The contact resistance Shielding techniques The locking systems of the connectors Housing and mechanics Why are new connectors being developed? Connectors in power electronics Connector for high data rates Further processing of the connectors in the manufacturing process The connector selection Connector database access in the accompanying online service InfoClick

        Periodic Inspections according to DIN VDE 0105

        Electrical Building Installations and their Equipment

        by Klaus Bödeker, Michael Lochthofen, Kirsten Rohlof

        The assessment of existing electrical installations carries a great deal of responsibility and can be fraught with many more pitfalls than the initial testing of installations.This practical guide takes the electrician step by step through the organisational preparation, technical implementation, evaluation and recording of periodic inspections for both domestic and commercial installations.Naturally, this 5th, updated edition takes into account the current Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health, VDE 0105-100/A1:2017-06, as well as DIN VDE 0701 and 0702. Topics included: Necessity and consequences of periodic inspections, Obligation to periodic inspection, Protective measures, repeat testing procedures, Periodic inspection in different types of buildings, Periodic inspection of electrical devices/equipment, Periodic inspection of electrical machine equipment and mobile generators, Test equipment, Occupational health and safety during periodic inspection, Preparation of periodic inspections for electricians.

        Testing of Electrical Systems, Vol. 1

        Basics, Evaluation criteria, Protection goals

        by Marc Fengel

        Not all testing is the same. What DIN VDE 0100-600 means for installers of electrical systems, DIN VDE 0105-100 is for operators. But even beyond that, comprehensive and broad knowledge is required for testing electrical systems.Volume 1 provides inspectors, experts, consultants, planners and operators with an overview of the planning principles for electrical systems and the requirements for test personnel. It also deals with the legal principles of the german Energy Industry Act (EnWG), Product Safety Act (ProdSG) and Occupational Health and Safety Act (ArbSchG).
