1 Number Contacts
The pole number (number contacts) important consideration when
selecting connector for certain application. Usually, you must take into
account that only useful contacts are counted. Also, certain arrangements have
become common.1: Han® 108 Fig.
DIN 43652 specifies the design and number contacts for only four types
of connectors. the connector has a

The manufacturer’s specification relates the current, which all connector
contacts can carry simultaneously.1.
