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
