EIA 364-45-C-2012

This standard establishes a test method to determine the ability
of a mated pair of electrical firewall connectors to resist
specified flame and vibration conditions during 20 minutes of
exposure by preventing flames from breaching the firewall through
the connectors and providing specific electrical performance for
the first 6 minutes.

NOTE — Do not use this test procedure to describe or appraise
the fire hazard or fire risk of the materials, products or
assemblies under actual fire conditions. Each application should be
assessed for compatibility with electrical and circuit
requirements.
