Can Delphi-Packard components be used with voltages higher than those found in a 12v nominal electrical system?
Delphi-Packard components are designed, tested and validated for 12v nominal (typically 0 – 16v) electrical systems. The primary concern in using these components with other voltages is not to exceed their amperage ratings. Another obvious consideration is that they should not be mated, or unmated, while under power in these applications. This can result in arcing, which degrades the electrical interface. It can be noted that we have numerous customers using Delphi-Packard components in such applications without any know problems. However, it is the responsibility of the user to obtain any testing and validation that may be required for such applications.
