NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 8) which is identical with IEC 60603-8 : 1990 ‘Connectors for frequencies below 3 MHz for use with printed boards - Part 8: Two-part connectors for printed boards for basic grid of 2,54 mm (0,1 in), with square male contacts of 0,63 mm × 0,63 mm’ issued by the International Electro technical Commission (IEC) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standardson recommendation of the Electromechanical Components and Mechanical Structures for Electronic Equipment’s Sectional Committee and approval of the Electronics and Information Technology Division Council.

This Indian Standard is published in 11 parts. The other parts in this series are:

Part 1 Generic specification - General requirements and guide for the preparation of detail specifications, with assessed quality

Part 2 Detail specification for two-part connectors with assessed quality, for printed boards, for basic grid of 2,54 mm (0,1 in) with common mounting features

Part 3 Two-part connectors for printed boards having contacts spaced at 2.54 mm (0.100 in) centres and staggered terminations at that same spacing

Part 4 Two-part connectors for printed boards having contacts spaced at 1,91 mm (0,075 in) centres and staggered terminations at that same spacing

Part 5 Edge-socket connectors and two-part connectors for double-sided printed boards with 2,54 mm (0,1 in) spacing

Part 6 Edge socket connectors and printed board connectors with 2,54 mm (0,1 in) contact spacing for single or double-sided printed boards of 1,6 mm (0,063 in) nominal thickness

Part 7 Detail specification for 8-way, unshielded, free and fixed connectors

Part 11 Detail specification for concentric connectors (dimensions for free connectors and fixed connectors)

Part 12 Detail specification for dimensions, general requirements and tests for a range of sockets designed for use with integrated circuits

Part 13 Detail specification for two-part connectors of assessed quality, for printed boards for basic grid of 2,54 mm (0,1 in), with free connectors for non-accessible insulation displacement terminations (ID)

Part 14 Detail specification for circular connectors for low-frequency audio and video applications such as audio, video and audio-visual equipment

The text of IEC Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions and terminologies are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appears referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
