DIN EN 4199-003:2010-08

The EN 4199 standard series describes bonding straps used for aircraft. Part 003 defines the characteristics of bonding straps with flat braided copper conductors, tin or nickel plated, and terminal lugs, tin or nickel plated, crimped on both ends, for aerospace applications. The tin plated bonding straps can be used in a temperature range -65 °C to 150 °C, the nickel plated bonding straps in a temperature range -65 °C to 260 °C. When using bonding straps on equipment or installations generating or processing frequencies greater than 100 kHz, care shall be taken not to exceed a length to width ratio 5 to 1 for reasons of electromagnetic compatibility. This standard shall be used together with EN 4199-001. The EN 4199 standard series has been prepared by ASD-STAN, Technical Section Electrics, Avionics, with the participation of German experts of the Aerospace Standards Committee. The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) declared the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD-STAN) responsible for the preparation of European standards (EN) for the field of aerospace. The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 131-04-08 AA "Installationskomponenten" ("Installation components") of the Aerospace Standards Committee at DIN.
