scope:

This SAE Standard specifies dimensional characteristics of flat blades of single-pole connectors and specific requirements for on-board electrical harnesses of road vehicles, which can be fitted into female connectors such as those given as in Appendix A.

This document applies to connectors designed to be disconnected after mounting in the vehicle in the case of repair and/or maintenance only.

Rationale

This document has been edited to agree with the update to SAE J2223-2 FEB2005. The previous issue of SAE J2223/2 FEB94 was technically equivalent to ISO 8092-2. The updated version of SAE J2223-2 FEB2005 was revised to list the tests and general performance requirements for connections used for on-board road vehicle electrical wiring harnesses used by major OEM's in the United States. SAE J2223-2 is no longer "technically equivalent." Therefore the beginning of this document has been reworded to state that it "is functionally equivalent to ISO 8092-1." Other minor differences between SAE J2223-1 and ISO 8092-1 remain the same. Editioral corrections were also made to specification numbers and Appendix A.
