Industrial & Commercial Transportation 48 Volt Evaluation Strategy

As the transportation industry moves toward higher voltage systems, it is important for TE Connectivity (TE) to take a lead role in providing up-to-date data regarding product electrical performance characteristics. Evaluation is vital for preventing electrical breakdown over the life of a product and is important for safety and performance related reasons. In evaluating connectors,

one must consider the ways in which electrical breakdown can occur: through insulation, on an insulation surface, and through air between conductive components. TE’s connector evaluation process takes into consideration ways in which electrical breakdown can occur and determines the required minimum distances between components for given applications.
