Name Type Mult. Description Owning Classifier
identification String 1

Specifies a unique identification of the specification. The identification is guaranteed to be unique within the document containing the specification. Over all VEC-documents a Specification-instance can be trusted to be identical if the DocumentVersion-instance is the same (see DocumentVersion) and the identification of the Specification is the same.

Specifies additional, human readable information about the specification.

Specification
specialPartType String 0..1

The specialPartType allows the specification of subclassifications for a PartOrUsageRelatedSpecification (e.g. different types of connector housings).

PartOrUsageRelatedSpecification
averageWireLengthAddOn NumericalValue 0..1

Specifies the average wire length add on for this connector.

ConnectorHousingSpecification
voltageRange ValueRange 0..1

Specifies the allowed voltage range for the connector housing.

ConnectorHousingSpecification
coupleable Boolean 0..1

Defines whether the connector is coupleable or not. Connectors that are coupleable can be used in an inline position. Connectors that are not coupleable can be connected only to an ECU or something similar.

ConnectorHousingSpecification
sealingClass SealingClass 0..*

Specifies the sealing class of the slot.

ConnectorHousingSpecification
connectorPositionAssurance Boolean 0..1

If true the ConnectorHousing has a connector position assurance (CPA).

A CPA is some sort of feature of a connector, that secures the connector in its correctly assembled position with its mating part.
