NORMAL FORCE

 

ABOUT

 
 

PURPOSE:

Normal force is one of the basic attributes of a contact system. It is a direct indication of contact pressure as well as contact integrity. The magnitude of said force can establish the gas tight condition between contacting surfaces. A gas tight interface prevents harsh environments and oxide or film growth from penetrating between surfaces which may cause degradation of electrical stability. It will also influence fretting motion and wear.

PROCEDURE:

This test is performed in accordance with several industry specifications such as: EIA 364, Test Procedure 4
