What is BS EN 60294 - Cylindrical component with axial terminations about?
BS EN 60294 is an international standard used for cylindrical components i.e. cylindrical capacitors and resistors used in electronic equipment. This helps in manufacturing and designing this cylindrical component with axial terminations
BS EN 60294 standard gives methods for measurement of the body length and for checking the excessive protective coating extending onto the wire terminations of components with axial wire terminations. It further provides a method for checking the overall body diameter of cylindrical components with axial wire terminations.
Note: A measuring method for components with unidirectional terminations is given in IEC 60717.
Who is BS EN 60294 - Cylindrical component with axial terminations for?
BS EN 60294 on Cylindrical component with axial terminations is useful for:
- Manufacturer of electronic components
- Manufacturer of automotive parts
- Electronic engineer
Why should you use BS EN 60294 - Cylindrical component with axial terminations?
The dimension of the cylindrical component helps in designing and constructing these components. This also helps in identifying the materials to be used in the manufacturing process.
BS EN 60294 specifies the measuring method for this cylindrical component with axial terminations. This helps in measuring the body length by inserting the wire terminations into slots or bores in the components. Coating material extending onto wire terminations is useful in determining the permissible length of the components. By applying BS EN 60294, you can design and manufacture good quality cylindrical components with axial terminations.
