This standard specifies the general characteristics of terminal junction systems for modular interconnection systems as well as test conditions, test programme and groups for quality assurance.
It applies to products specially adapted to provide connections within a very reduced space for variable extendable, divisible, transformable and interchangeable combinations of equipment within a temperature range from - 55 °C to 175 °C, and for altitudes up to 21 000 m for sealed modules or up to 13 700 m for unsealed modules. The conditions of use shall be in accordance with EN 2282.
It also applies to interconnections incorporating components.
