The working current is the maximum current that can be used for your connector at any time for any duration. For specific applications, such as motor starters and capacitance discharge, it's recommended you use a higher current than usually accepted by the connector. In today's podcast, we'll discuss what other values need to be considered when selecting a connector and also talk about reasonable temperature rise and lifetime of the connector.
