| Your choices are... | |||
| CEE | Devices follow Certification of Electrical Equipment (CEE) configuration standards. CEE is a European standard. | ||
| IEC | Devices follow International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) configuration standards. The IEC is an authoritative worldwide body responsible for developing consensus global standards in the electrotechnical field. IEC is dedicated to the harmonization and voluntary adoption of these standards, supporting the transfer of electro technology, assisting certification and promoting international trade. Since 1906, IEC has served the world's electrical industry, developing international standards to promote quality, safety, performance, reproducibility, and environmental compatibility of materials, products, and systems. It has also published standards for the electronics and telecommunications industries. The IEC's present membership of 51 countries includes most major trading nations. IEC standards are widely adopted as the basis of national or regional electrotechnical standards, and are often quoted in manufacturers' specifications and by users when calling for tenders. Over 2000 standards cover virtually every topic of electro technology from acoustics, to medical devices, to insulating materials, to aircraft, to nuclear instruments. The electrotechnical standards organizations of each participating country make up its membership, with ANSI representing the United States. | ||
| NEMA | Devices follow NEMA configuration standards. The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) sets safety standards for electrical cabling and connectors. | ||
| JIS | Devices follow the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS). | ||
| Other | Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary types or configurations. | ||

|
| ||
| Terminals | Terminals are devices that terminate a conductor. They attach to posts, studs, or other conductors in order to establish an electrical connection. | ||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Cage Clamp | Electrical connections are made using a cage clamp. | ||
| Crimp | Crimp is the physical compression (deformation) of a contact wire barrel around a conductor to make an electrical and mechanical connection to the conductor. | ||
| IDC | Insulation displacement connectors (ICD) slice through cable insulation to make a connection. Forcing an insulated conductor into a restrictive slot in the connection part of the contact displaces the insulation so that the bare wire engages the sides of the slot. IDCs are mass termination connectors for flat cables and eliminate the need to strip insulation. | ||
| PCB Solder | Electrical connection is made by soldering wires onto a printed circuit board (PCB). | ||
| Screw | Electrical connections are made using screws. | ||
| Lugs | Electrical connections are made using lugs. | ||
| Solder Cup or Solder | Solder cups are terminal ends or contacts into which conductors are inserted before soldering. A metal or metallic alloy is used to join metal surfaces together. Normally, a 60-40 rosin core (60% tin and 40% lead) is used for soldering electronic assemblies. Soldering is a wet process. | ||
| Tabs | Electrical connections are made through quick connect tabs. | ||
| Wire Wrap | Electrical connections are made by wrapping a stripped or unstripped solid wire around a terminal post that contains a series of sharp edges. This solderless process requires a special wrapping tool. | ||
| Other | Other unlisted terminal types. | ||

| Operating Temperature: | This is the full-required range of ambient operating temperature. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Dielectric Withstanding Voltage | This is the maximum potential gradient that a dielectric material can withstand without failure. The thickness of the material and the method and conditions of the test determine this value. | ||
| Search Logic: | All matching products will have a value greater than or equal to the specified value. | ||
