Scope

This part of GB 13140 applies to connecting devices for household and similar purposes as
separate units. The AC rated voltage of these connecting devices shall not exceed 1000V, the
frequency shall not exceed 1000Hz, AND THE DC rated voltage shall not exceed 1500V. It can
electrically connect the two or more hard copper conductors (solid or stranded) or soft copper
conductors with the cross-section area of 0.2mm2 ~ 35mm2 (including 35mm2) and the
appropriate AWG wire gauge. These hard or soft copper conductors shall meet the requirements
of GB/T 3956-2008 or GB/T 18213-2000.
NOTE: The connector with rated connecting capacities lower than 0.5 mm2 can refer to GB/T 18213-
2000; and the connector with rated connecting capacities greater than or equal to 0.5 mm2 can refer to
GB/T 3956-2008.
Connecting devices complying with the requirements of this Part shall not require the use of
special tools for connection, except for twist-on connecting devices and insulation piercing
connecting devices.
This Part contains the general requirements to be used together with the relevant Part 2,
containing detailed particular requirements for:
-- devices with screw-type clamping units (GB 13140.2);
-- devices with screwless-type clamping units (GB 13140.3);
-- devices with insulation piercing clamping units (GB 13140.4);
-- devices with twist-on connecting devices (GB 13140.5).

Summary	This Chinese standard applies to connected devices independent unit for household and similar purposes. These connecting devices shall not exceed the rated voltage 1000V, frequency less than 1000Hz, DC rated voltage should not exceed 1500V, electrically connect two or more root should be able to cross-section of 0. 2mm2 ~ 35mm2 (including 35mm2) or the corresponding the AWG wire gauge hard copper wire (solid or stranded) or soft copper wire. These hard or soft copper conductors shall comply with GB/T 3956-2008 or GB/T 18213-2000 requirements. Note: The rated capacity of less than 0. 5mm2 wire connection reference to GB/T 18213-2000, rated connecting capacity greater than or equal to 0. 5mm2 conductors with reference to GB/T 3956-2008. In addition to twist -on connecting devices and with insulation piercing connecting devices would otherwise meet the requirements of this standard shall be connected to the device without the use of special tools to make the connection. This standard General Requirements, Part 2 should be special requirements (hereinafter referred to as"Part 2), in conjunction with: with screw -type clamping device (GB 13140. 2) with screw -type clamping device (GB1 3140. 3) with insulation piercing clamping units connected devices (GB 13140. 4) twist-on devices (GB 13140. 5)
